Fish Fillets with Broccoli - Fiskfiléer på broccolibädd

FISH FILLETS WITH BROCCOLI
Fiskfiléer på broccolibädd

Cooking fish in the oven is quick and easy. If you cook it on a bed of vegetables you save both time and work, plus it looks nice when you serve the fish!

Serves 4

1 1/3 lbs fish fillets of plaice, pike-perch, 
haddock or cod
0.2 cup water
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon mustard, preferably unsweetened

Sauce:
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
3 tablespoons flour
0.8 cup fish liquid
0.8 cup cream, 15% fat or the like
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon mustard
salt and white pepper if needed


Quickly rinse the fish and drain it well. Lightly thaw the broccoli, enough to part it. Put them in an oven-proof pan, pour on the water and sprinkle with salt. Fold the fish fillets and put them on top of the broccoli. Salt them lightly and cover with aluminum foil. Boil in the oven at 350F for about 10 minutes. Remove the foil. Melt the fat and mix it with paprika and mustard. Pour this mixture evenly over the fish and boil for another 10 minutes at 390F until the fish and broccoli seem tender.

Make the sauce. Sizzle flour and fat in a saucepan. Dilute gradually with the fish liquid from the pan to a smooth sauce. Add cream and let the sauce boil for 3 to 4 minutes. Flavor with lemon, mustard and salt and pepper if needed.

Serve the fish with the sauce and potatoes or whatever you fancy. 

Enjoy!
