A friend sent us this fish recipe saying it was hands down the best hake recipe she’d ever eaten. She wasn’t wrong! It was so easy to cook, with only a few ingredients. It definitely had us going back for more! It was just as good the following day as left overs.Thanks for sharing Nikki! The original recipe is from Food & Home magazine.
