"FISH AND CHIPS" CASSEROLE
This isn't your typical fried fish and chips style dish. The fish is baked and the potatoes are scalloped in this dish. It is made with a white sauce that contains crème fraiche and is infused with some fresh thyme and garlic. The very thinly sliced potato topping ends up baking up to be a lovely golden brown and the fish is flaky and tender. This is fairly simple to prepare and a great lighter variation on the standard fish and chips. This comes from a book called "Sunday Casseroles" by Betty Rosbottom, though I have made some very minor changes.

Steps:
- Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees. Generously butter a 2 quart shallow baking dish.
- Melt the butter until hot in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly for about 2 minutes. Gradually pour in the milk and the crème fraiche, whisking constantly until the mixture comes to a simmer.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the garlic, 3/8 tsp of salt and 3/8 tsp of black pepper. Add the thyme and let the sauce infuse with the seasonings for at least 10 minutes. I didn't have fresh available so I used about 1/4 tsp of dried thyme in the sauce and didn't use any additional for garnish.
- Cut the cod or haddock fillets into 1 inch chunks and pat them dry with paper towels. Place the fish in the prepared baking dish and season with salt and pepper. Remove the thyme sprigs from the sauce (or leave in the dried thyme if you used that instead) and pour half of the sauce over the fish. Stir gently so that all the fish pieces are well coated and spread them evenly in a single layer.
- Peel the potatoes and cut them crosswise into very thin slices (1/8 inch or less - I used a mandolin to do this). I ended up using less than 1lb once they were thinly sliced as about 2 medium sized potatoes ended up being enough to cover the 2qt. casserole dish even when overlapping a good amount.
- Arrange the potato slices in a single overlapping layer on top of the fish. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.
- Pour the remaining sauce over the potatoes and spread evenly. (Tip: The casserole can be prepared up to this point about 4 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature 30 minutes before baking).
- Bake the casserole, uncovered, for 45 to 50 minutes. After 30 minutes the potatoes should have just started to brown and the liquids in the dish will be bubbling up slightly. At this point, start checking the casserole often until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a sharp knife and are golden.
- Arrange a rack in the oven 4 to 5 inches from the broiler and broil the casserole until the potatoes are more browned - 1 to 2 minutes. Watch carefully as the potatoes can burn quickly.
- Remove casserole from oven and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes and then sprinkle with thyme before serving.

BAKED FISH AND CHIPS
Baking fish and chips is not only easier and less messy than frying, but it also has the distinct advantage of allowing you to cook both fish and potatoes at the same time in your oven. The key to getting the crunchiest fries is to cut them thin (leave the skin on for extra flavor) and spread them out in one layer onto a preheated sheet pan to jump-start the crisping. (If you want to save a few minutes, start the potatoes in the oven while you prepare the fish.) We've paired this dish with a piquant horseradish tartar sauce, but ketchup works well, too, particularly for the grade-school set.

Steps:
- Make the horseradish tartar sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Prepare the fish and chips: Arrange 2 oven racks in the top and bottom third of the oven. Place a large rimmed baking sheet on the lower rack and heat oven to 500 degrees.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons oil. Stir in panko, thyme, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until crumbs are evenly dark golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer immediately to a bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together mustard and eggs. Place flour in a third bowl.
- Grease an oven-safe wire rack with oil and place it over another rimmed baking sheet. Season fish with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Dredge each piece of fish in the flour, then mustard mixture, then panko mixture, making sure it is well coated with each one before moving to the next. Transfer fish to the wire rack. (You can bread the fish up to 4 hours ahead; store in the refrigerator, uncovered, either on the rack or just on a plate.)
- In a large bowl, toss together potatoes, the remaining 4 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Carefully spread potatoes out on the preheated baking sheet and return to oven's lower rack. Roast until slightly golden and crispy, tossing after 15 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 425 degrees and transfer the second pan, with the fish still on the wire rack, to oven's top rack. Bake until fish is flaky and golden and potatoes are well browned and tender, about 10 to 15 minutes more.
- Salt fish and potatoes immediately after removing from oven. Serve hot, with tartar sauce alongside for dipping.
