Completed the quest, didnt get my recipe, for some reason. If this happens to you, Go to Nomi in Dalaran (cooking trainer guy for Legion) he will have all of your recipes you have quested for so far for sale and if im not mistaken it was 12g?
As death knight you can use Wraith Walk to walk to the fire without being slowed.

What to do
Description
With Ashildir's judgment, your final trial is complete. But even Valhallas can wait, for now we must eat! Being dead works up quite an appetite. Come now, bring some of that fish to roast over the fire. It is far too heavy for me to carry.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

We have fulfilled Helya's bargain. Now, we see if she will keep to her word. When you are ready, we should proceed to the throne. If you have any other business here, I would suggest finishing it now. I will follow your lead, outsider.
