Slow cooker recipe

This can be prepared and cooked within 2½ hours, so it is not very slow. It includes a rather unusual kind of mash. Use unsmoked cod or other white fish if you prefer.

Preparation time: 25 minutes

Cooking time: 2 or 2½ hours

Servings: 4 to 6

Ingredients

2 x 410 gm cannellini beans

1 bunch of spring onions

400 ml boiling fish stock

1 tsp wholegrain mustard (or mustard powder)

grated rind and juice of 1 lemon

salt and pepper

4 smoked cod fillets, about 600 gm

small bunch of parsley, watercress or rocket leaves

4 tbl crème fraiche

Instructions

Preheat the slow cooker if necessary.
Boil the beans in their water for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Meanwhile slice the onions thinly.
Mix the fish stock with the mustard, lemon, salt and pepper.
Rinse the parboiled beans in a sieve and arrange them in the slow cooker pot.
Add the stock mixture to the pot, and arrange the fish on top.
Cook on auto for 2 hours or on low for 2½ hours.
Meanwhile chop up the parsley, watercress or rocket.
When the fish is cooked, use a fish slice to transfer it to a large warmed plate and cover it with a second one.
Strain off the liquid through a colander, and mash the beans in a saucepan.
Stir in the chopped leaves and the crème fraiche.
Spoon the mash onto plates and serve the fish on top of it.

Tip: Serve with rocket, watercress or sliced cucumber.
