finnan haddie

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'some smoked fish' is the definition.
'finnan haddie' can be an answer for 'fish' (finnan haddie is a kind of fish). I'm not sure about the 'some smoked' bit.

'find annie had cooked' is the wordplay.
'cooked' indicates an anagram.
'find'+'annie'+'had'='findanniehad'
'findanniehad' is an anagram of 'FINNAN HADDIE'.
