Total Time45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 500 ml / scant pint semi skimmed milk - or 400ml milk and a small glass of white wine
  • Mixture of fish fillets – about 600g / 1lb 5oz – I used cod - hake and salmon
  • 30 g / 1 oz butter
  • 1 heaped dsp plain flour
  • Handful vegetables – I used broad beans from the freezer – peas and corn would work well
  • 1 heaped dsp finely chopped gherkins or capers - optional
  • 6 large pancakes – I used a packet of Abra-ca-Debora
  • Sprinkling of cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Put the fish in a large frying pan and pour the milk over. Bring the milk to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, until the fish is opaque and starting to flake. Remove the fish from the pan and set it aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Then add the flour to make a paste. Cook for several minutes, stirring all the time. Reduce the heat and gradually add the milk, again stirring all the time to get a smooth sauce. Carry on cooking, stirring from time to time until the sauce has thickened.
  • Using two forks separate the fish into flakes, discarding the skin and any bones. Add to the white sauce, together with the broad beans or other vegetables and gherkins or capers (if using). Season to taste.
  • Place the pancakes one by one into an oven proof dish and fill with the fish mixture, top with any remaining fish and sprinkle with a little finely grated cheese.
  • Bake at GM 5/190°C/375°F for 20–25 minutes, until piping hot and starting to turn golden.
