It was a dish that was on my menu for quite a long time now, since I was pregnant till about seven months after the little munchkin was born. Now that I finally had freedom of choice for what goes into my mouth, I decided I should do something different to awaken my eager palette.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have had a recipe for fish loaf since a long time ago, but this recipe calls for the fish to be rolled up in an aluminium foil and cooked in a pot of boiling water. This was what I tried to do a few years ago, but because the foil was not rolled tight enough, water seeped in and turned my dinner into a soggy roll &#8211; far from what I was hoping for. This time round, I decided to do away with the wrapping and boiling and used a loaf pan instead to bake the same recipe. The result was pleasing enough and it tasted as good as I&#8217;ve imagined it to be. The baking also helped to crisp up the sides of the loaf a bit, such that the loaf was able to hold its shape well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You could give both methods (boiling or baking) a try, depending on which one you are more confident with. I can assure you though, baking it would be a much simpler and more hassle-free way to get to dinner after a long and hectic day at work.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tuna flake: 4 cans (about 700g)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Breadcrumb: 2 cups<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chesdale cheese slice: 3<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Egg: 4, lightly beaten<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fresh milk: 1.5 cups<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Lemon juice: 2 tsp<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Paprika: 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Salt: 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">English parsley: 1 stalk, roughly chopped<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Lemon wedge: to serve<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mayonnaise: to serve<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>Method<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Preheat oven at 170 degree Celsius.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Place all the ingredients except parsley into a blender.
