Ocado 2 ASC Dyed, Smoked Basa Fillets.

Cook time: 55 mins
Serves: 4

This smoked basa and cheesy egg dip is a comforting and simple dish ideal for a weeknight family meal. A great-value recipe that’s full of essential ingredients that you’re likely to have in the cupboard, it’s ready in just over an hour and is full of flavour.

Ingredients:
2 slices of bread
2 medium potatoes, cut into ½ inch cubes
300g smoked basa
100g mature cheddar, grated
2 eggs, hard-boiled and chopped into eighths
50g parmesan, finely grated
3 drops tabasco (optional)
200ml double cream

Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven at 150°C/130°C fan/gas mark 2. Place the bread in the oven on a baking tray for 20 mins or until completely dried.

Step 2
Parboil the potatoes for 5 mins – they should still be firm.

Step 3
Break up and flake the smoked basa with your fingers, discarding any skin or bones.

Step 4
Holding back the cream and half of the parmesan, in a bowl gently stir together the potatoes, cheddar, hard-boiled eggs and half of the parmesan. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to season or if you like a couple of drops of tabasco.

Step 5
Adjust the oven temperature to 160°C/160°C fan/gas mark 3. Tip the mix into a small casserole dish and pour over the cream.

Step 6
Crumble the bread and sprinkle over the top, along with the remaining parmesan.

Step 7
Bake in the oven for 30 mins before serving.
