I've been trying to find my actual recipe for the Salmon & Prawn Bake but it's disappeared - long ago I think. For years now I've just been making it from memory and I don't even know the weights & measures of anything.
But it's really easy, basically -
Salmon fillets (cut into largish chunks) and any kind of prawns you want in a shallow(ish) oven dish.
Make a basic cheese sauce (I like it with a really mature cheddar with plenty of cracked black pepper) and pour over the fish.
Part cook some potatoes and then slice them and arrange over the fish/sauce.
Sprinkle with grated cheese and dill.
Bake in oven at 200 for around 35-40 minutes.
Salmon and prawns should be perfect and potatoes nice and crisp on top.
Although, Al, please note - the
Lochmuir Salmon and Prawn Bake from
Marks & Spencer is almost identical to my recipe. I get this sometimes when I can't be bothered to cook and it tastes just like mine. And can't go wrong with this one - especially if you have guests, I swear they'd never know it wasn't homemade!
