This recipe was shared by our Parish Priest in one of our weekly bulletins. I think that makes it perfect for Good Friday or anytime you want a quick, easy and delicious casserole.
My friend Sue of Palatable Pastime is hosting Fish Friday Foodies this month and asked us to share Good Friday Fish Recipes.
Let's take a look at what everyone brought to the table.......
- Crab Deviled Eggs by Karen's Kitchen Stories
- Fish and Tots by A Day in the Life on the Farm
- Fiskefrikadeller med Karry (Fish Cakes with Curry) by Sid's Sea Palm Cooking
- Green Chilly Pesto Fried Fish by Sneha's Recipe
- Sardinian Fregola with Clams by Caroline's Cooking
The dish I'm sharing with you is perfect, in my humble opinion, as it is so easily adaptable. You can use any fish that you like, any can of creamy soup that you like, any milk that you like, Miracle Whip or Mayo, and any seasoning that you like.
I used Walleye that had been given to me by my friends, Chet and Nancy. They were cleaning out their freezer to get ready for this years catch and that means I got some of their fish from last year that was frozen in water immediately upon being caught.
Our priest, Father Brad, shared this recipe in our parish bulletin. He used cream of celery soup and curry for flavoring, as did I, but I can't wait to try it with other flavors.
I served it up with a chopped salad and a delicious dinner was on the table in less than an hour.
Just a note......I forgot about the curry powder until after I poured in the soup mixture so I sprinkled it on top. I think it would have been much better had I remembered to incorporate it into the sauce.
