Cod and spinach bake


For this recipe you can use any kind of white fish, such as cod, haddock or coley.

Ingredients
Fillets of white fish
Lemon juice
roughly 250gr of spinach
Dill (fresh if possible-dried will do)
Mozzarella cheese
Olive oil
Salt

In a frying pan, cook the fish gently with the lemon juice and a drizzling of olive oil. About 15 minutes is more than enough, but make sure you have a soft, flaky fillet of fish. In the meantime throw the spinach in a frying pan with another drizzling of olive oil, salt and the dill. Let it sweat on low fire for about 3-4 minutes.

Lay out the fish on a baking dish and also add the juices from its frying pan. Spread on top the spinach and cover with some thick slices of mozzarella. Cook in a pre-heated oven at 200 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese melts and turns golden. Serve with cous cous or rice.
