- I make this in individual, one portion, ovenproof bowls about 4" deep. These ingredients are for 2 servings. shopping list
- 3 cups cooked, skinned and chunkily flaked fish of your choice. Use 2 or 3 different types. cod, plaice, huss, etc.,etc., .....I avoid smoked fish, it tends to overpower. shopping list
- 1 cup cooked prawns (shrimp) shopping list
- Either: a packet of ready made white sauce or, to make it from scratch: shopping list
- 1 dessert spoon butter or margarine shopping list
- 1 tablespoon flour, sieved. shopping list
- milk shopping list
- 1 vegetable stock cube shopping list
- potatoes, cooked and mashed, enough to put an inch on top of the bowls. shopping list
- Grated cheddar cheese (optional) shopping list
- butter, salt and pepper for mashed potatoes. shopping list
How to make it
- Make up the ready made sauce, cumble and melt the stock cube into it.
- Or: Make a Roux - :
- Melt the butter in a saucepan big enough to hold all the fish, add the flour, bit by bit, stirring all the time to make a thick paste.
- Add milk, a little at a time and keep stirring, adding more until the Roux is the consistency of single cream.
- Crumble and melt the stock cube into the sauce.
- Add the fish and prawns and mix together
- If the sauce too thick, add a bit more milk.
- Taste the sauce and season if needed
- Spoon the mixture into the bowls, top with buttered and seasoned mashed potato and bake in a medium oven for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are slightly brown or the cheese (if used) is bubbly and slightly coloured.
- You can make this in one big dish for the family.
- I recently served it at a get together with friends, in individual bowls, each placed on a dinner plate, accompanied by steamed, colourful veg.
- Also, I've tried it covered with puff pastry instead of mashed potatoes. That worked well too.
