    added a finely chopped shallot and 2 tiny onions to the fish dish, also put a teaspoon of cornmeal in the sauce to thicken, and 1/2 teaspoon of bouillon powder, received the compliment that my sauces are getting better :)

    A quick and easy delicious meal. too used a little cornflour for the sauce, I couldn’t find any smoked haddock at the shop today and bought some smoked basa instead. I served the fish with slightly spiced rice, It was lovely.

    Very tasty quick meal. I thickened the sauce slightly with cornflour which I think improved it.
