Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • lilham on January 20, 2019

    I made this today and my 7 and 4 year olds loved it very much. I followed the recipe loosely. Nigella Lawson used nearly 1.8kg of fish for 8 people. That sounded way too much fish so I used 300g of frozen fish mix (cod, salmon and smoked haddock) for 4 or us instead. I poached the fish mix from frozen and also added diced carrots with the fish. I didn’t measure the milk for poaching and just poured enough to barely cover it. I skipped the egg as I didn’t want to wash another saucepan. But if I have planned better, I would have boiled it with the potatoes. I used about 30g butter to make the becahmel sauce, adding enough flour and milk to get to the right consistency. Then I put the flaked fish, carrots and frozen peas into a 20cm square baking dish, pour the sauce over, and topped with about 400g of potatoes. Baked for 20min and it’s ready. Simple and definitely one to cook for children.
