Advantages: Tastes good (if you like fish)
Disadvantages: Creates alot of washing up!
I cooked this last night and it went down very well so I thought I'd share it with all you lovely people. I warn you now though only attempt this if you have a dishwasher or love your washing up as it uses a lot of pans!
This will create a lovely hearty fish pie which was described as 'real comfort food' when I presented it.
This will serve four and is only a guide and you can edit it to suit your individual tastes. The recipe is low in fat and reasonably healthy.
Ingredients:
500g potatoes cut into chucks
250g salmon fillet
250g cod fillet
100g prawns
three large spring onions
400ml milk
200g low fat soft cheese
100g broccoli florets cut into small chunks
50g peas
75g grated cheese
mixed herbs
chives
pinch of salt
Spray oil
seasoning to taste
1) Fill a large pan with lightly salted water and boil the potatoes
2) Place the milk, cod and salmon in a pan. Simmer for 7 minutes until nicely cooked turning once halfway through. Drain and keep the milk to one side, allow the fish to cool.
3) In another pan cook the broccoli until softened
4) Spray a large pan with oil and cook the spring onions until they are soft. Add the soft cheese and stir until the onions are coated and all the lumps have gone. Add the milk you reserved earlier from cooking the fish. Mix it all well and add the broccoli, prawns, peas, chives and mixed herbs. Mix everything together well. It is at this stage you should try the mixture and season to taste.
5) Spray a casserole dish with oil and add the mixture you've just made. Don't worry if it seems runny it will thicken on cooking.
6) Drain and mash the boiled potatoes, add a splash of milk and mash until creamy. Season to taste.
7) Spoon the mashed potato onto the top of the mixture and sprinkle the grated cheese onto the top.
8) Cook the dish in a preheated oven at 220 or gas mark 7 until the top is golden brown and bubbling. This should take about 30min.
9) Enjoy! I served it with boiled broad beans and carrots.
Summary: Really tasty yet healthy comfort food

- 03/10/09 Sounds yummy! I might try making this, although I might skip the prawns (they scare me, with those soulless black eyes - I've actually had a prawn phobia for 15 years!) |
