It was tough

I find it kind of creepy, that i spent only 2 weeks in the US, and when i finally came home, i had to go to shopping, and buy food for 54€. OK, to tell the truth i also bought a casserole, what i managed to crack at once. Nicely done. :s
So i poach some filet of Shallow-water Cape hake , and made some fish sauce. I haven't found sole or flounder, and that was my best shot. Actually it was Filets de poisson Bercy aux champignon, that's fish filets poached in white wine with mushrooms. For that i should have slice mushrooms, sauté them in butter, lay an onion bed for the fish, put the filets on it, put on the mushroom and then more onions, dots of butter and add some fishstock with white wine, and then bring the whole thing to simmer and in the oven cook it for 8 to 12 minutes. Then take the whole thing out, simmer the poaching liquide until it reduces to 1 cup, add it to some pasta made from butter and flour, boil it, pour it on the fish and sprinke it with cheese. Then in a few minutes broil the whole stuff and it's done. That was the recipe.
To tell the truth i didn't made the fish stock with wine. I bought it. I know, shame on me, but i hate the smell of any kind of fish. So i just went on the easier way.
And that's why the result of this poaching kind of hit me. In a good way, i mean. It's OK. But why was it tough to do it? Hehhh.... It was just me. I haven't read the recipe carefully. At my first attempt i broke the new casserole, what makes me really sad. At the second time, it hit me, that i'm poaching the fish, BUT i forgot the mushrooms. OMG. I had to sauté the mushrooms before, which i totally forgot to do in the first place.... So quickly i tried to fix the whole thing. Of course, The Book says: "do not overcook; the fish should not be dry and flaky". No chance. This time it's definitely WILL be overdone. Sorry.
So I took the whole thing out from the form, one half goes back with the filets, then the mushrooms, the other half, and i brought to the simmer the whole thing. But finally i managed to do it. I ate. Real food. It tasted reallly good.
I bought some strawberries too, to i'll try to bake some tarte. But before i attempt, I have to buy some jelly.
