Potato and white fish bake

To cook the veg, boil the potatoes in water with a little salt for about 12-15 minutes until almost tender. Add in the brocolli and simmer for another 2- 3 minutes. Drain well then add into a mixing bowl. 

Add the milk, onion, cloves, bay leaves and peppercorns into a pan, and then gradually bring to the boil. Add the fish into the hot milk, lower the heat and poach for 10 mins.

Using a slotted spoon, lift the fish into a medium sized ovenproof dish, strain the milk and set aside.

Melt the butter in a saucepan, and then add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 min. Stir in the milk gradually on a low heat until mixed well with the sauce, then gently simmer for 5-10 mins until thickened. Add the parsley, a little nutmeg and some seasoning. Pour the sauce over the fish, and then set aside.

Heat oven to 180°C/gas 6. Lay the potato slices over the fish, spread out evenly, then sprinkle with the grated cheese. Transfer to the oven for 35-40 mins until piping hot and golden on top.
