Steps:

• Rinse and pat dry the fillets, remove any skin, mince the fish, mince several times so you have a fine texture.

• Stir the farce vigorously and slowly incorporate the milk & cream, beating all the time.
• Butter a 2 1/2-3 pint oblong mould, sprinkle in the bread crumbs coating the mould.

• Bake in 375 oven for approximately 1 hour or until a knife comes out clean.
• Invert the mould very carefully.
• Decorate with the shrimp & parsley.
