As the long Easter weekend winds down, sometimes the last thing you want is a heavy, elaborate traditional roast. Renowned chef Henry Harris has the perfect antidote: a comforting, bubbly, and incredibly simple Sunday supper that practically begs to be eaten with a spoon on the sofa.

Swapping out traditional holiday centerpieces, Harris champions a 15-minute cheesy baked smoked haddock. It is the ultimate fuss-free comfort food, ideally paired with a crisp side salad or a generous bowl of hot, buttered peas.

To round off the meal, he suggests a zesty, biscuity lemon icebox pudding. Together, the savory warmth of the baked fish and the refreshing chill of the iced dessert create a beautifully balanced and effortless close to your holiday weekend.

Inspired by classic French cooking and featured in his cookbook The Racine Effect, Harris' alternative menu proves that sometimes the best holiday meals are the ones that prioritize relaxation over rigorous kitchen prep.
