Fish crumble (traditional method & Thermomix)
Description
Tender fish fillets, fragrant herbed breadcrumbs and a sweet little sauce to top it all off. It's the kind of dish you prepare on a weekday evening without thinking too much about it - but which is always a pleasure. And as is often the case with me, there's the classic version... and the Thermomix version.
