Ingredients (serves 4)
- Cod (raw)600 g
- Potatoes (raw)700 g
- Onion100 g
- Milk 2.5%200 ml
- Egg (1 egg)55 g
- Hard cheese60 g
- Rapeseed / sunflower oil5 g
Also: Dill, lemon zest, salt, pepper
Method
- Turn the oven on to 190 °C to heat up (about 10 min). Peel the potatoes (700 g) and cut them into thin slices, about 3 mm; slice the onion into thin half-rings.
- Pat the cod (600 g) dry, feel with your fingers for any bones and cut it into 4 cm pieces. Season with pepper, a little lemon zest and a little salt.
- Grease a baking dish with the oil (5 g). Lay in half the potatoes, then the fish, onion and chopped dill, and finish with the rest of the potatoes on top.
- Whisk the milk (200 ml) with the egg and a pinch of salt and pour it over the bake. Sprinkle with grated cheese (60 g).
- Bake at 190 °C for 40 min, until the top is golden.
- Check: the potatoes are soft (a knife slides in easily), the fish is opaque and flakes easily, and the milk and egg mixture has set. If not, bake at 190 °C for another 5–10 min.
- Leave to rest for 5 min and serve. Cool any leftovers within 2 hours and keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Tips
- Slice the potatoes thinly – they'll be done at the same time as the fish.
- Frozen cod works too – thaw it in the fridge overnight and pat it dry.
- Want it lighter? Half the cheese.
