Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450&# 194;°F (230°C).
  2. Arrange the cod fillets in a single layer in the bottom of a round ovenproof dish.
  3. Melt 2 oz of butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
  4. Stir in 2 oz of flour to form a roux and cook for 1 minute.
  5. Gradually whisk in 1/2 liter of milk, cooking until the sauce thickens.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in 3 1/2 oz of grated cheese until melted and smooth.
  7. Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the cod fillets.
  8. In a bowl, combine 8 oz of flour, 1 tsp baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  9. Rub 2 oz of cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs.
  10. Stir in 2 oz of grated cheese.
  11. Add 1 egg yolk and enough milk to bring the mixture together into a soft, workable dough.
  12. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll it out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  13. Cut the dough into small rounds using a scone cutter or glass.
  14. Arrange the scone rounds on top of the sauce, ensuring they just cover the surface.
  15. Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk.
  16. Sprinkle additional grated cheese over the scones.
  17. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the scones are golden brown and the fish is cooked through.
