Cook Time 15 mins
Total Time 15 mins
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 200 g 7oz new potatoes
  • 500 g 1lb packet of baby spinach
  • 6 tbsp soft cheese
  • 4 firm white fish fillets such as cod or haddock
  • 50 g 2oz breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the grill to medium. Cook the new potatoes in boiling, salted water until they are tender, then drain and set them aside.
  • Put the packet of spinach in the microwave and cook for 4 mins until wilted. Squeeze the water out of the spinach and roughly chop. Add the cheese and a little grated nutmeg if you like, then season well.
  • Put fish fillets in a baking dish with a little olive oil. Divide the spinach mixture into 4 and place on top of each fillet. Sprinkle over the breadcrumbs and grill for 10-12 mins.
  • Lightly crush the potatoes with the back of a fork and stir through some olive oil and the chopped parsley, then serve with the fish.

Notes

For extra flavour, try substituting half the breadcrumbs for Parmesan.
