A comforting and hearty dish, Classic Fish Pie is a delightful combination of tender fish pieces enveloped in a creamy sauce, topped with smooth mashed potatoes and baked to perfection.
Ingredients
- 250 grams white fish fillets such as cod or haddock, skin removed
- 250 grams salmon fillets skin removed
- 500 milliliters milk whole or semi-skimmed
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons plain flour
- 100 grams peeled shrimp optional
- 800 grams potatoes peeled and chopped
- 75 grams cheese grated, such as cheddar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
- Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, then drain and mash with some butter and a splash of milk.
- Place the fish in a saucepan, pour over the milk, and gently simmer until just cooked. Remove the fish and set aside, reserving the milk.
- In a separate pan, melt butter, add the flour and cook to form a roux. Gradually whisk in the reserved milk to create a smooth sauce.
- Add the fish and shrimp to the sauce and season with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture into a baking dish.
- Top with mashed potatoes and grated cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until golden and bubbling.
