Breakfast
Omelette Arnold Bennett
The only omelette here finished under the broiler rather than folded — it was built for a novelist who wanted the same supper at every hotel, and the cream glaze on top is the reason it survived him.

Method
6 steps · 25 minutes
- Poach the haddock in barely simmering water with a bay leaf for 5 minutes, then flake it and pull out every bone.
- Whip half the cream to soft peaks and stir the rest into the beaten eggs with plenty of pepper.
- Melt the butter in an ovenproof pan and pour in the eggs, dragging the set edges in until the base is just holding.
- Stop while the top is still wet. It goes under a broiler next, and an omelette cooked through first comes out rubbery.
- Scatter the haddock over, spoon the whipped cream across the top and cover it with parmesan.
- Broil close to the heat for 2 minutes until it blisters and browns in patches. It is served flat, in the pan, and never folded.
