1 tbsp cornflour

1 vegetable stock cube

1 small onion

25g butter

Preheat the oven to Gas 4/ 180°C.

Boil a large pot of water and cook potatoes until soft, for approx. 15 minutes.

Take the frozen vegetables out of the freezer. While the potatoes are cooking, simmer one cup of the milk in a large pot.

Add onion, season with pepper and add the stock cube.

Cut the fish into 6 pieces, add to the milk mixture and cook on the low heat for about 10 minutes until the fish flakes with a fork.

Divide the fish into smaller chunks.

Sprinkle parsley over the fish and then add the raw or frozen vegetables.

Add the cornflour, butter and 1/2 cup of milk to the pan in which the fish was cooked. Stir frequently with a whisk and cook on the hob on a low-medium heat for approx. 2-3 minutes until thickened.
