Ingredients
- 500 grams codfish cut into bite-size
- 200 grams shrimps small size
- 2 pcs shallots chopped
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 sheet puff pastry thawed in the fridge
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 cups milk
- ½ cup green peas
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- salt and pepper for seasoning
- 1 egg beaten for eggwash
Instructions
- Preheat oven at 180°C and prepare a rectangular baking dish. I used a 6 x 10 x 2½ in. dish.
- Heat oil and melt butter in a pan over medium heat. When butter melts, Saute shallots and garlic.
- Tip in the shrimps and cook until pink in color. Sprinkle the flour and stir for 2 minutes then pour milk.
- Continue stirring until the sauce thickens. Add the fish and green peas and season with a dash of salt and pepper.
- Simmer while carefully stirring to avoid the flour sticking at the bottom of the pan. Do this for 7-8 minutes or until the fish is cooked and sauce is creamy.
- Transfer in the baking dish and let it cool a bit, just enough as to not melt the puff pastry.
- Take puff pastry from the fridge and roll onto the baking dish. Cut excess pastry on the side if needed. Score the top of the puff pastry using a knife to release steam when baking.
- Place inside the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. On the 18th minute mark, you can cover the top with aluminum foil to avoid burning the pastry.
- Remove from oven and serve. Bon appetit!
