I love fish but we have never been particularly adventurous at cooking fish in our family. Growing up I loved to eat shellfish and I can remember eating muscles, prawns and cockles with my Dad every so often, but since my mum and sister didn’t like them it was never something we ate as a family.
One of my favourite childhood meals was jacket potatoes and different fillings. My dad and I would have tins of sardines, mackerel sometimes tuna as well as the other non fish fillings my mum would prepare but it wasn’t until I was a bit older that I started eating things like salmon and sea bass whenever I could order them at a restaurant (although I once ordered a ‘Fish Platter’ from a pub called The Green Man and it was so awful! My family teased me about it for weeks!).
Since starting Fish Fridays recently on Instagram I have been trying to introduce a variety of seafood to our weekly meals. Aldi’s ‘cook from frozen’ fish fillets have been amazing and so handy to have in the freezer. I’ve never been impressed with any frozen fish I have bought it the past but their frozen rainbow trout, cod and haddock have been brilliant! You can hardly tell they had been frozen. Cooking them in my Le Creuset shallow casserole dish rather then wrapping them in foil has really made a difference. It’s stopped them from going dry and kept all the moisture locked inside.
This is a lovely light summery fish dish that can be served a number of different ways. It would be great served over some wholegrain rice or quinoa, with the cooking liquid poured over the top. Or you can do what we did and serve it in a salad with some roasted mediterranean vegetables and new potatoes.
