Fishy Mushrooms! The original recipe was with plaice from Annabel Karmel, but I think any white fish'll do...

A blade of mace
2 peppercorns
1 slice onion
1/2 bayleaf
150ml milk
15g onion finely chopped
15g butter/marg
2 button mushrooms chopped
1 tbs flour
100g white fish

Add the mace, peppercorns, slice onion and bayleaf to milk and heat (without boiling) for about 5 mins. Saute other onion in butter/marg until soft, add mushroom and cook until soft. Stir in flour to cook it out then add strained milk gradually, stiring continuously, to make a thick, white sauce. Cook the fish separately by your preferred method, flake and add to the sauce. Can be served like this, or pureed if necessary!

Or the simple approach: sauteed in butter or vegetable oil.  Just a little (15 g for the fat) on a flat pan, over low heat the first minutes (turn over after 5 minutes, two minutes on the other side) then heat goes up for a minute, and a quick turnover to the other side.  Or poached, sauteé finely chopped onions (if she likes) on the butter or oil, over low heat and add whatever veggie she likes (mushrooms, pepper, peas), then add the fish, sautée one minute, turn over and repeat, add a little milk, 100 gr, chopped parsely or basil if she likes and boil over low heat 5 more minutes. 

We do them also by sauteeing minced garlic, a bit of onion, some peas and/or chopped green beans (not too much), then add the fish and sauté and then add fish stock (no milk) or water with a bit of lemon juice,  just to cover plus chopped parsley and we cook in the pan (frying pan) continously moving the contents by the pan handle so the sauce thickens a bit with the fish juices, for five or six minutes or  until done but flaky (depends on size of portions).   The sauce looks green...
