Recipe for Fish Pie
Ingredients (Serves 6):
Mash Potato:
1.5kg Maris Piper potatoes, peeled and diced
1 tsp salt (for boiling)
75g butter
3 egg yolks
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fish Pie Mixture:
50g butter
2 shallots, finely diced
1 small fennel bulb, finely sliced
2 leeks, finely sliced
Salt and pepper, to taste
50g plain flour
400ml double cream
75g smoked cheese, grated
350g cod, cut into chunks
300g prawns, peeled and deveined
350g salmon, cut into chunks
100g frozen peas
2 tbsp parsley, chopped
2 tbsp dill, chopped
3 gherkins, finely chopped
Juice of 1 lemon
Method:
Prepare the Mash Potato: Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth. Mix in the butter, egg yolks, and seasoning. Set aside.
Cook the Fish Pie Mixture: In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots, fennel, and leeks, cooking for 5-7 minutes until softened. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle over the flour, stirring for 1-2 minutes to cook out the raw taste. Gradually pour in the double cream while stirring, creating a smooth sauce.
Add the smoked cheese and stir until melted. Gently fold in the cod, prawns, salmon, peas, parsley, dill, gherkins, and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste and cook for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the fish starts to cook but remains tender.
Assemble the Pie: Preheat your oven to 200°C. Spoon the fish mixture into a large ovenproof dish. Spread the mashed potato evenly on top, fluffing the surface with a fork for a golden, crispy texture.
Bake the Pie: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Serve: Let the pie rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!
