Fish "a la Normandie"

This recipe is for you if you like fish but either don't have the time or were always afraid of cooking.
It is the easiest recipe for fish I know and also one of the most delicious. You can use any white fish fillet - in this example I used catfish (even not sure about that - translating fish names is not very easy). I always use fresh fish, please do if you can get it. Frozen fish would work as well but will not taste as good.
Per person calculate about 200g of fish.
  • Slice one medium size onion and fry in a tablespoon of butter.
  • Add a sliced clove of garlic
  • Add the fish, fry slightly from both sides (see first picture).
  • Add 200g of Creme Fraiche (per 200g of fish) (see second picture).
  • Let it simmer for about 5 minute, until the fish is done
I usually do not add any salt or pepper - this should be done at the table. I like it best with bread - but you can also eat it with potatoes if you like. The whole process takes about 15 minutes.
