About Me

My photo
I will attempt to update wartime recipes to modern tastes, in order to keep up with new trends, attitudes and approaches to food and it's preparation while still keeping a traditional British wartime feel to recipes. I will start by making recipes to the letter and move forward from there to encompass different modern diets. I will attempt to make meals first fit in to a popular diet plan and then will move on to Vegetarian/Vegan versions. So that everyone can enjoy British wartime recipes. This experiment is for my own amusement as well as to feel closer to my grandparents over the years they cooked and lived through hard times.

Extra Quick Fish Pie!

Ingredients:
3 fillets of white fish
Tbsp margarine
Tbsp cornflour
1/3 pint of milk
Handful of frozen peas
Tbsp grated cheese
Tsp chopped parsley
Instant mash

Method:
Using 3 frozen fillets of White fish for quickness; I defrosted the fillets in boiling water then flaked them. Melt the margarine in a pan and add the fish. Pour in the cornflour and stir, coating the fish. Add enough milk to cover and stir thoroughly. Add the frozen peas, the grated cheese and parsley and stir again. Once the frozen peas in the sauce are thawed, transfer the mixture into a dish. Then make up some instant mash according to the instructions on the pack and cover the fish mixture in the dish. Place in an oven at gas mark 5 for half an hour.
