- INGREDIENTS:
- 3lb fresh or frozen haddock fillets
- 2cups mayonnaise
- 1/3cups lemon juice
- 1tbsp grated onion
- 2tsp salt
- 1/2tsp pepper
- 1tsp curry powder

- 2envelopes unflavored gelatin
- 1cup liquid(fish cooking liquid plus
- water if necessary)
- 1/2cup chopped parsley
- watercress
- marinated shrimp (recipe follows)
PROCEDURE HOW TO PREPARE:
Wash the fillets or thaw the frozen ones until they can be separated.Put a large sheet
of heavy-duty aluminum foil on a rack in a very large pan (1 use my roaster).Lay the
fish pieces on the foil and turn the foil up around the fish so it will hold the cooking
liquid. Add about 1/2 inch (1.25cm) boiling water to the pan (water will be under the
fish so fish steams), cover tightly and simmer about 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily
with a fork. Lift fish pieces out into a bowl and cool.Drain any liquid out of foil into a
measuring cup.Cool.
Flake fish finely into large mixer bowl, discarding any bones and dark flesh or skin.
You should have about 6 cups (1.5L) flaked fish.Combined mayonnaise, lemon juice,
grated onion,salt, pepper,curry powder, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco.Add fish
and beat all together(medium speed on the mixer) until as smooth as possible.Soak
gelatin in1 cup (250ml) liquid 5 minutes in a small sauce pan.Set over low heat just
until gelatin is dissolved.Pour into fish mixture in a stream, beating constantly.Stir in
parsley. Pour into 2-qt(2.5-L) mould with a tube in the center. Chill several hours until
very firm.Unmould on a bed of watercress and fill centre with Marinated Shrimp.

- 1 small onion,sliced paper thin
- and separated into rings
- 10 oz large cleaned shrimp
- 1/2 cup wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup salad oil

PROCEDURE:
