Fishy Derbyshire Oatcakes
Now here's an easy one. Just take one Derbyshire oatcake (to be found in most good supermarkets) and fill it with honey roast flaked salmon and a ready-made cheese sauce.
If you have more time, you can grill the oatcakes rather than microwave them, which will make the outside a little crispier, and you can, of course, concoct a home-made cheese sauce for yourself. The Derbyshire oatcake link here and above will give you more information and ideas about this very Peak District product which has somewhat slipped out of fashion, but certainly deserves to be resurrected.
There is a supplier of oatcakes in my own village and our village pub (The Beehive Inn) always has them on the menu. I'm ashamed to say it's taken me 12 years to try one but now I will be going back and back to this humble, healthy, traditional option.
All you have to do is put a 350g tub of the cheese sauce (such as Morrison's 'Signature' creamy four cheese) in a saucepan and stir in a packet of honey roasted salmon flakes and heat through (removing all the packaging first, of course!!). Meanwhile put the oatcake in the microwave and heat up for about 20 seconds. Then spoon some of the cheesy salmon filling into one half of the oatcake and fold over. Serve with pea shoots. The sauce is enough for about 4 oatcakes.
Yum. Moreover, it takes less than 5 minutes and the kids love them too, which is always a bonus.
