Aussie Creamy Fish

- Ready In:
- 25mins
- Ingredients:
- 7
- Serves:
-
4
ingredients
- 2 1⁄2 cups cream
- 1⁄2 cup tasty cheese (cheddar, I assume?)
- 1⁄2 small onion, grated
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon nam pla (fish sauce)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 lb fish fillet (Australian mackeral, barramundi, tuna, salmon, or coral trout)
directions
- Make sauce by combining all ingredients (except fish fillets) in saucepan over medium heat until cheese is melted.
- Place fish fillets into baking dish (one that can go directly onto the table works well). Spoon the sauce onto the fillets.
- Bake at 425 - 450 degrees for 10-15 minutes (for thick fillets), or under the griller (for thin fillets) until cooked and top is browned. Fish should flake easily with a fork; on the other hand, it shouldn't look dried out either. Alternatively, you can also reduce the sauce in a frypan on a medium to hot heat on top of the stove. Turn heat down to medium and then cook the fillets in the sauce.

Perfection for a Spring nite. This is as beautiful a dish as it is to devour. You could serve this for so many things. At a shower, (cut in smaller pieces, with that beautiful sauce over/top) for a wonderful dinner presentation, a brunch, anything, anytime! I followed this exactly, except used fresh chives instead of the grated onion. The colors of the sauce were so pretty! I used tilapia, and some mild cheddar cheese in the sauce. Very, very easy to prepare and I broiled the fish and it was perfect and flaked wonderfully! Made for your win, *ZWT Six* "Zee Zanies Cookz" May 2010

This is really simple, delicious, and unusual. I used a cheddar cheese as suggested. I loved how all these flavors came together with the salmon fillet. This made a lot of sauce and I did try the reduction method. I think next time I will only use a 1 to 1 1/2 cups cream. Thanks, Debbie R.! Made for ZWT5.

I really enjoyed this! Loved the sauce! For my 1/2 cup of cheese I used cheddar and I also added 4 oz of cream cheese. It had a nice flavor and was definitely creamy. For my fish I used salmon (my fav). The leftovers from this are really good kind of chopped and put over toast or hot biscuits... YUM! I just love this recipe. Thanks Debbie! :)
