Norsk Fiskegrateng (Fish Au Gratin)

This is a very good way to get your serving of that important fish. I use Cod for this recipe, but any white, firm fish will do. The recipe comes from a book entitled "Trolldom in the Kitchen".

1. Flake the poached fish into a well greased baking dish.
2. In a small saucepan, melt margarine, and add 1/2 cup flour.
