Arranging
Thin fillets of fish i.e. plaice, should be rolled
up prior to cooking to avoid overcooking on
the thinner outside edge and tail.
Fish steaks should be arranged in a circle,
thicker part to the outside. Cover with cling
film or lid.
Liquid
Fresh fish should always be sprinkled with
30 ml (2 tbsp) of water, lemon juice or white
wine.

When cooking frozen fish, add liquid as
above for even cooking.
Do not sprinkle salt onto fish before cooking
as this may make the fish dry.
Noise
During cooking, popping sounds may be
heard. This is due to moisture trapped
between the flesh, particularly with oily fish
such as salmon and mackerel. This can be
minimised when cooking the fish if the skin
and flesh is pierced several times with a
cocktail stick.

Melt the butter in the casserole dish on High power (1000 W) for
