Your first recipe was so successful that I decided to try this one too. I made it last night for me and four other people. I used about 1.5kg of potatoes, and three of my 1lb fish packs (only 25 left to go!) - haddock. I used passata instead of the tomato sauce, and was pretty sparing with it since I didn't want the "everything tastes of tomatoes" student food syndrome. > [...] add water to cover everything [...] I was suspicious of this step; it seemed like an awful lot of water. Besides, the only thing I had big enough to fit all this food in didn't have a very deep lip. So I just poured some in - and poured it round the edges so as not to wash off the butter and passata. After two hours there was still an awful lot of water left, but we were still eating carrot sticks and dips and things at that point, so I turned the oven down very low and just left it. Er. I have no idea how long. An hour or so? There was wine. I can't remember. Anyway, when I took it out the water had gone somewhere. It was very good. I took the whole tray in and let people admire it and then serve themselves. I served it with plain steamed green beans. Kake
