Instructions:

  1. Prepare Fish Layer:

    • Begin by placing the cod fish fillets in the bottom of a round oven dish.
  2. Make Cheese Sauce:

    • In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
    • Add 2 tablespoons of flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes until golden brown.
    • Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of milk until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
    • Stir in 3 1/2 ounces of grated cheese until melted and smooth.
    • Pour this cheese sauce evenly over the fish in the oven dish.
  3. Prepare Scone Dough:

    • In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
    • Rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
    • Stir in 2 ounces of grated cheese.
    • Add 1 egg yolk and mix well.
    • Gradually add enough milk to form a workable dough.
  4. Shape and Bake Scones:

    • Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
    • Roll out the scone dough on a floured surface to a thickness of about 1/2 inch.
    • Use a scone cutter to cut the dough into small rounds.
    • Arrange the rounds on top of the fish mixture in the oven dish, covering the surface as evenly as possible.
    • Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk to glaze them.
    • Sprinkle some additional grated cheese over the scones.
