Individual Fish Pies

Picture
Quick and easy and really delicious. This recipe is ideal for a light lunch, an easy supper or a starter for a dinner party.
Smoked snoek makes an excellent main ingredient, but any cooked fish also works well.
Served with a green salad or garnished well with watercress can turn it into a lovely dish or starter.
Bake it till just set and still moist. It can be baked in advance and gently reheated before serving. It also freezes quite well.

Ingredients:
700 gr  smoked snoek (or any  other cooked firm fish)
1         onion, finely chopped

250 ml cheddarkaas, grated
3         eggs, hardboiled and grated
5 ml    fish spice
60 ml  flour
