Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams broccoli florets
- 500 grams white fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock)
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 150 grams cheddar cheese, shredded
- 50 grams parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Steam the broccoli florets for 3-4 minutes until they are slightly tender but still bright green. Set aside.
Season the white fish fillets with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Place them in the prepared baking dish.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to form a smooth paste.
Gradually add the milk to the saucepan, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the sauce is thick and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, salt, and remaining black pepper. Mix until the cheese melts and the sauce is creamy.
Arrange the steamed broccoli evenly over the fish in the baking dish. Pour the cheese sauce over the broccoli and fish, ensuring they are completely covered.
In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with the olive oil. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the cheese sauce.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Broccoli Fish Bake!
