We eat this almost every week. Ommit the cheese for a lighter sauce. I use a blender to make the breadcrumbs. Serve with Lemon and Dill Potatoes - Lemon and Dill Potatoes and peas.

I have made this 3 or 4 time now and its brill. Have made some alterations. Change fish for salmon, prawns, mussels and any other seafood on special offer at supermarket at time. The more you put in the better.

Delicious comfort food. So easy to make and so very tasty. Poaching the fish in milk will make even non-fisheaters like it!
