Method

step 1
Heat the milk and spring onions in a wide shallow pan with a lid. When it comes to a simmer, add the fish, put on a lid, turn down to a simmer and leave for a minute. Turn off the heat and leave for 5 minutes. Scoop out the fish and onions then flake the fish, discarding any skin and bone.

step 2
Put the potatoes in a pan of cold, salted water. Bring to a simmer then cook for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain well then tip back in the pan. Mash with a large knob of butter. Leave until cooled then mix through the fish and onions and season.

step 3
Form into 4 cakes. Chill for 20 minutes. Heat some oil in a non-stick frying pan then cook the cakes for 4-5 minutes each side until golden and heated through. Heat the cream and whisk in the mustard and a splash of water. Season.

step 4
Sit the cakes on top of the spinach and spoon over the sauce.
