  1. N ot sure why I didn t write a review on this recipe before. Anyway, as written it is a little too bland for us so added more Italian type seasonings and some hot pepper flakes. One reviewer said that the potatoes had not cooked in time given...................you have to cook them first. Good recipe and can be used with haddock as well.
     
  2. This was a great recipe for those, like me who are not too crazy about fish. It would have rated higher, but I found the potatoes did not cook properly in the 30 minutes. I had to turn on the broiler to brown them. As it was they were brown on the top and raw underneath. Next time I might parboil the potatoes or put a lid on for the first 20 minutes to steam the potatoes and then taken the lid off to let them brown. I also added 1 tsp dried oregano and 1/4 cup fresh parsley to liven up the tomato sauce. As I did not have tomato paste handy I just left out the vegetable broth and simmered the sauce a little longer. Also used red peppers instead of green, because that was all I had. Despite this, I loved it! I will definitly try this again.

<img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/thhelloicon.gif> UPDATED: 15 Aug 2007 Hi! Thanks for taking a peek at my page! I'm formally from East Norriton, PA, a suburb of Philadelphia. After 21 years of marriage, got divorced and met a Brit living in the U.S. He decided to come back to his homeland and I came over here about a year later. We were married in October 2005. Here I am down at Viking Bay which is only two miles from our house. My hubby grew up down here and I love living near the seaside. <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/rosebud.gif> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/love_123.gif> We adopted two rescue cats in May 2007 and now I have some company during the day! (Yeah sure, great company they are when they sleep all day!) Our two 'children'...

I have a husband who can cook! I cook during the week and Peter cooks on the weekends. I have included some of his concoctions in my list of recipes. <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/condimen.gif> Me at the Scotland border, August 2005 <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/Places%20we%20have%20been/19Scotland.jpg> I'm still unemployed which gives me plenty of time to experiment in the kitchen. I love to cook and try different things and 'Zaar has really helped in that aspect. I'd love to start my own business someday selling some of my homemade creations. <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/i_want_it_all.gif> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/give_me_chocolate_or.gif> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/zaargroupie.gif> I'm a Betty Boop freak and have loads of stuff that I've collected over the years including a porcelain doll of her in a wedding dress and I even have her tattooed on my ankle. <img src=http://www.gifszone.com/"><img border="0" src="http://www.gifszone.com/content/icon/cartoon/cartoon_10.gif"> ~~~~~~~<img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/bettyboop36.gif> I enjoy doing cross stitch, cooking, baking and entertaining and hubby and I love our wines! Some of my pet peeves are bad hygiene, rudeness, bad manners, laziness and people who litter. My favorite cookbook is my Betty Crocker Cookybook. I've had a copy since I was about 12 and it was falling apart. My brother got me a new copy a couple of years ago from ebay and it was a FIRST EDITION and was in excellent condition. Now that I'm here in England, I find myself collecting more cookbooks. I'm going to need another room just for them if I don't cut down a bit! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/samethingsticker.jpg> <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1535/CLC1.gif"><img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/RegSwap1-1.jpg> <img src="http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/KiwiDutch/3chefstag1.jpg"><img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f249/Dreamgoddess555/Narrow1-1.jpg"><img src="http://www.pickle.com/plink/ph/795B07337A4704307B51032E7D5E0237795A1C512307476E143E5A652E076C34725B06357F500533140741682C4659712C.jpg" border="0" alt="adoptatagparticipant" title="Photo and Video Sharing"/> <img src=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/cookbookswap.jpg> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Drink-Challenge.jpg"> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/DrinkChallenge.jpg> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://www.tinycounter.com" target="_blank" title="web site hit counter"><img border="0" alt="web site hit counter" src="http://mycounter.tinycounter.com/index.php?user=CulinaryQueen"></a>
