Scorched Fish Bake 😋

I love non intimidating baking recipes… there is so much to do than toil in the kitchen…life is hard enough .. baking doesn’t need to be !

I love love love this recipe for it’s simplicity and flavourful fun by combining mayonnaise and egg white.

It’s so easy but the lightness of the dish is such a refreshing taste from the over used white sauce base for a fish pie ! Get creative or take notes from your mums repertoire of golden recipes ♥️🙃 !

Ingredients:

Stage 1 Cooking the fish :

Fish – 400 gms

Salt – to taste

Vinegar- 1 tsp

Pepper – 1 tsp

Split Green chilli – 2

Boil fish with the above ingredients.

Flake the fish and keep aside. Ensure all the bones are removed.

Stage 2 : assembling the vegetables/ cheese and boiled egg to make the base for the bake.

Chopped red capsicum – 1

Chopped spring onions – 5 stalks

Chopped boiled egg – 2

Grated cheese – 1/3 cup

Mix the above ingredients with the flaked fish and keep in a 12 inch baking dish.

Preheat the oven to 175C.

Egg whites – 2

Mayonnaise – 1 cup

Beat egg whites stiff, fold gently into the mayonnaise and spread over the layered fish.

Bake in a preheated oven until golden . Serve warm.

Add a pinch of love ♥️:

Sauté the fish layer in a butter garlic sauce before layering it in the baking dish . Make homemade garlic mayonnaise and not store bought !

Enjoy baking ♥️
