I think it could be used with a lot of fish dishes - grilled fish, fish cakes, steamed fish.....  I made it with salmon fishcakes and it was perfect as otherwise the fishcakes would have been a bit dry. 

I'm sorry I didn't take a photo

Thanks Katya - great recipe - we have it a lot with fish of various sorts - especially if fried or grilled.  But goes well with poached fish too.  ...and of course prawns !!  How could I forget !!
