- Black pepper (to taste)
- Milk (1 cup)
- Butter (2 tablespoons)
- Onion (1 large, finely chopped)
- Potatoes (4 medium, peeled and diced)

- In a frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent.
- Add the flaked fish and cooked potatoes to the frying pan. Stir gently to combine.
