14th August – Fish pie

Ingredients (serves 2):

  • 8-10 small mushrooms – halved
  • 1-2 teaspoons of dried tarragon
  • 2 x cod/haddock fillets
  • 150-200g of cooked king prawns
  • Dash of white wine
  • 150ml of double cream
  • Knob of butter
  • 3-4 potatoes – cooked and mashed

Start by heating the oven up to around 180 degrees C.

Take the two fillets of fish and overlay them in an oven dish then pour over a dash of white wine and season well with salt and pepper.  Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes then remove and place to one side.

Fry the mushrooms off for a minute or so in a little olive oil, then pour them over the fish fillets.  Scatter the king prawns over the dish.  In the same pan that you did the mushrooms in, pour in the cream and tarragon and gently bring to a simmer then whisk in the knob of butter to make a creamy sauce.  Season well with salt and pepper then pour over the fish and mushrooms.

Put the mashed potato into a piping bag and pipe it over the top of the fish and mushrooms.  Bake it in the oven until the potato has gone golden and crispy and the fish and sauce below is bubbling away nicely.

Serve up straight away!  Enjoy!
