Ingredients
Method- 2 T butter
- 1 T olive oil
- 4 leeks, washed and finely chopped
- 2 T flour
- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup cream
- 1 x 500 g box Woolworths frozen haddock portions
- 2 x 115 g cans Woolworths smoked mussels, drained
- white pepper, to taste
- 8 potatoes, boiled and mashed
Method
Ingredients- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Heat the butter and oil in a large pan. Add the leeks and cook over a low heat until soft.
- Stir in the flour, then whisk in the milk and cream. Pour the mixture into a medium-sized baking dish. Top with the frozen haddock and mussels and season.
- Spoon over the mash and spread using a fork, then bake for 25 minutes until golden brown.
Cook's note: Add extra smokiness to this old favourite by using smoked mussels from your pantry stash.
I have off cuts of kobeljou in the freezer, do I really chuck it in frozen? I’ll likely skip the mussels however…. but add some peas!
Just checking if yogurt would work instead of the cream?
Hi Paula, yoghurt wouldn’t work here as the texture would change during baking and the end result would be quite different to the one intended here.
