Quick cheesy fish dish

I love trying different cheeses, and a Swiss gruyere is a firm favourite: with a whole milk flavour, nutty tones and fruit notes it is perfect for cooking. Try this surprisingly quick fish dish, served with an amazing combo of mushrooms, spinach, cream and of course gruyere cheese!!

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large pan and fry the mushrooms until tender. Add the spinach leaves, season and stir until spinach leaves begin to wilt.

Preheat the grill. Mix the grated gruyere with the cream and spoon on top of the cod fillets.

Serve the cod on top of the mushroom and spinach. Delicious!
