First make the mustard sauce. Boil together the double cream and mustard and season with salt and pepper. Reserve until required
- 125ml of double cream
- 25g of grain mustard

For the risotto, heat the oil in a pan and sweat the onions until soft but not coloured. Add the rice to the pan and stir until the rice is coated with the oil
- 1 tbsp of olive oil
- 50g of onion, finely chopped

Add the white wine and bring to the boil. Little by little add the stock, stirring continuously until each ladleful is absorbed

- 600ml of fish stock

Keep adding the stock, stirring as often as possible, until the rice is tender but still has a bite - this should take approximately 15 minutes

Poach the haddock in the double cream. Once cooked, flake the haddock and gently stir it into the risotto with the poaching cream and the Parmesan. Keep warm while you poach the eggs
