Cod & Prawn Bake
In the Oven
serves 3
This cosy cod and prawn bake layers flaky fish and juicy prawns in a simple parsley-flecked white sauce, then finishes everything with thin potatoes and cheddar.
It is a practical oven dinner for three: make the sauce on the hob, tuck in the seafood, then bake until the potatoes are tender, golden and bubbling at the edges.

Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Lightly butter a medium baking dish.
Melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the warm milk to make a smooth sauce, then simmer for 2–3 minutes until lightly thickened.
Take the pan off the heat. Stir in the cod, prawns, sweetcorn, parsley and half the cheddar, then season well with salt and black pepper.
Spoon the seafood mixture into the baking dish. Arrange the sliced potatoes over the top, overlapping slightly, then scatter over the remaining cheddar.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling, the fish is cooked through and the potatoes are tender and golden. Rest for 5 minutes before serving.
