Really Really really easy fish pie.

Poach a few fish fillets for 5 minutes.I suggest a mix of white fish ie cod,coalie or whiting plus a bit of salmon or smoked fish for flavour. Break it up in the base of a baking dish. Season it really well, and pour over creme freche.Stir it a bit to get the salt and pepper into the sauce. Spoon over mashed potato and smooth it so it looks nice. Chuck it in the oven till the top is a bit browned. This is not bad at all but you must season it plenty.

try putting some cheap frozen prawns in as well.

If you poach them in 75/25 milk/cream then you don`t need the creme fraiche, especially if you add 1/2 a squeezed lemon

 

If you like them add a few quartered soft boiled eggs before the tattie topping !

I'd prefer to put some decent ones in, rather than those tasteless chewy nuggets!

Try adding a layer of peas between the fish and the mash.

Good tip.

Or adding a bayleaf, peppercorns and some chopped shallots to the poaching liquor.

Or spinach with a sprinkle of nutmeg.

im not a big fan of fish, could i make it without any?

[JJaxeman]

Fish pie without any fish now come on BAB's why would we call it fish pie LOL A fish pie can be as easy or as hard as you want to do it it can be cooked with fresh fish from twenty mins to two hours non fresh your choice, all is good though check out UK TV Food and all those other sites online .

Cheers

Some good ideas above ta guys.Bit of cheese on top would not go amiss either. My kid is a bit fussy but this is one of the few things she will bolt down at the moment.
