Remarks
If you don't have smoked haddock, you can use another type of smoked fish, such as trout or whiting.
In Step 2, do take care not to overcook the cauliflower. Don't cook it beyond tender, as cooking it for longer might not change the texture but will produce a strong and unpleasant smell that will fill the whole house.
