Tonight's readymade delight! 🍽️
Some potato-topped fish pie, with a shrimp and dill sauce. Also another incidentally gluten free option!
("QUALITY SHOULD NOT COST MORE")
That ran just about £2/$2.75 for reference, and we'll see about that! The ingredients looked fairly promising, though.
(Via autotranslated OCR, because wording spoons: "INGREDIENTS: POTATO MASH 44%: Skimmed milk powder, mashed potatoes powder (sulphite), vegetable margarine (vegetable oil (rapeseed oil), water, emulsifier E 471 (veg), E 322, salt, antioxidant E 330, flavors), salt, pepper extract. FISH 30%: Clean-cut fillets of Alaska pollock * (Theragra chalcogramma). SAUCE 26%: Crème Fraiche (highly pasteurized cream, milk protein, modified corn starch, stabilizer E 440, E 410, lactic acid culture), water, cooking cream (whey powder (from milk) buttermilk powder (vegetable powder, margarine oil, vegetable oil) water, emulsifier E 471 (veg), E 322, salt, antioxidant E 330, flavors), shrimp 1.4% (Pandalus borealis), Alaska pollock * 1.4% (Theragra chalcogramma), modified corn starch, onion, salt, tomato puree, dill 0.3%, shrimp aroma. CATCH AREA: * Pacific Ocean (FAO 67). ** Northwest Atlantic (FAO 21) Catch method: Fished with trawl.")
Since I already had the oven fired (electriced?) up to toast some oats, and I had enough time before I wanted to eat? I just went ahead and popped the frozen delight in there too, for the whole suggested time--plus a little more, with the usual underestimation on the package. 🙄 Generally, I would nuke it until it's basically done, then shove it into the oven for a few minutes to brown if I felt like it.
Also as usual for a casserole like that, I covered the pan with slightly tented foil for most of the cooking to keep the top from drying out too much. Uncovering to let it brown the last 10-15 minutes was plenty.
Yep, that's a lot of aluminum foil! But, I can easily reuse anything that didn't get covered in food, and totally plan on it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The little foil bundles at the back are garlic bulbs I couldn't resist also popping in to roast. He bought a pretty big pack of garlic to use when he was starting up another jar of brine pickles earlier in the week. (Sour cucumbers this time, after he saw some small variety that looked good for that in our local grocery store.) Shame to maybe let any of that extra go to waste! 😁 Plus, you know, roasted garlic.
Besides butter and a jar of coconut oil which is hiding in a box somewhere, we still only have a couple of little bottles of extra virgin olive oil intended for salads and the like. So, I ended up drizzling a little of that on. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
One of them is chili infused, so I used some of that on one head of garlic, because why not. To hopefully tell them apart at the end, one got sprinkled with coarse black pepper, while the other got a tad of Creole seasoning because it was there.(Yep, no salt and pepper grinders have turned up unpacking yet! 🙃)
Not that there was much visual difference at the end anyway. You could just about make out bigger specks on one, but hey.
They ended up tasting about the same too, when I couldn't help but try one of each with the rest of the food.
Yum! 😋
Not surprised, with no more oil than it needed. Very tasty, regardless! He sampled some too, and now I'm planning to stash the rest in the fridge for later. Well sealed up.
As for the main attraction?
More of my usual awesome presentation, with the last little bit of garlic cream cheese spinach on the side. And some extra sprinkling pepper standing by. Plus about 2 pint glasses of water to wash it all down, just to be safe! 🙄
About as tasty as I'd been hoping, as it turned out. Just a hint of shrimp flavor, which wasn't too surprising given the percentage. These Swedes really know what they're doing with the dill and cream, though.
Playing it safe, I started out with half the single serving tray--and feel like I'm about to burst now! Still working off a pretty low capacity for Actual Food, much less a bunch of potatoes and fish in a rich cream sauce.
Originally thinking to save the rest for later, but it apparently smelled delicious enough to Mr. C that he came in to scavenge the other half like a starving creature himself. Which was fine. I didn't think he'd want the shrimp content in particular, but next time I'll know to pick up one for each of us!
Now to figure out what to have instead later, with all the more feasible choices available now.
Definitely not bad for the price! 9.5/10 would try again even when less malnourished and in immediate need of the energy. 😁

Pappa har lagat födelsedagsmiddag till mig 😋 Jag fyller egentligen på onsdag, men då pappa ska på kurs i Göteborg hela veckan, och jag ska på sömnutredning i början av veckan därpå bestämde vi att vi kör på fiskgratäng med mos och räksås denna helgen istället! 🖤 Min absoluta favoriträtt, särskilt då pappa lagar den med färsk spättafilé och färska räkor, äggulor i moset och massvis med smarrig sås! 🤤 https://www.instagram.com/p/CKY4DoeD-6h/?igshid=x5ilwlevpdl4
