Ingredients

Directions

  1. Poach the cod fillets until just cooked through, then flake into small pieces and set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
  3. Stir in the flour, dry mustard, and cayenne pepper to create a roux.
  4. Reduce heat to low and gradually whisk in the milk until smooth.
  5. Add the Worcestershire sauce and stir constantly until the sauce thickens.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk the egg, then gradually stir about 1/2 cup of the hot sauce into the egg to temper it.
  7. Return the egg mixture to the saucepan and cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly.
  8. Stir in the grated cheddar cheese until melted and smooth.
  9. Gently fold in the flaked cod and heat through, being careful not to overcook the fish.
  10. Split and toast the English muffins, then place them on a baking sheet.
  11. Top each muffin half with a slice of tomato.
  12. Broil the muffins 3 to 4 inches from the heat source for 1 minute until lightly browned.
  13. Remove from the oven and top each muffin with the cod and cheese sauce.
  14. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
