How to Make Haddock In Mustard Sauce
- In a large skillet, combine 2 cups fish stock and 1/2 cup milk. The skillet should be large enough to hold the haddock in a single layer.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Add 1 pound haddock fillets, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Cook uncovered for 5-7 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
- Carefully transfer the cooked haddock to a heated platter, cover, and keep warm.
- Bring the poaching liquid to a boil, then reduce it until 1 cup remains.
- Reduce heat to medium, stir in 1/4 cup heavy cream, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Whisk in 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 2 tablespoons sour cream. Bring to a simmer.
- Whisk in 2 tablespoons butter, a little at a time, until the sauce is smooth and thickened.
- Add any juices accumulated on the platter. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve and pour it over the haddock.
- Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (or dill) and serve immediately.
