Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 230°C.

Step 2

Put potato chunks into salted boiling water. Bring back to boil and cook for 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs to the pan with the potatoes and cook for 8 minutes until they are hard-boiled and the potatoes are cooked.

Step 4

Steam the spinach in a colander above the pan.

It should only take about a minute to wilt.

Remove from colander and squeeze out any excess moisture.

Step 5

Drain the potatoes. Remove the eggs, cool under cold water, then peel and quarter them.

Step 6

Slowly fry the onion and carrot in a little olive oil for about five minutes.

Step 7

Add the double cream and bring just to the boil. Remove from heat and add the cheese, lemon juice, mustard and parsley.

Step 8

Put the fish in an ovenproof dish. Then add the spinach and boiled eggs. Pour over the creamy, cheesey, vegetable sauce.

Step 9

Mash the potatoes with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and nutmeg. Spread on top of the fish mixture.

Step 10

Cook for 25 - 30 minutes until the potatoes are golden.
