More old-fashioned comfort food. The proportion of the different fish varieties used can be varied to reflect what you can readily obtain. For ease and speed I mostly use a commercial cheese sauce but a home-made cheese sauce can reflect the cook’s personal preference if wished. Capers are an acquired taste and are therefore optional.

Ingredients and spices that need to be Take to make Fish Pie:

1. 600-700 g mixed fish. I usually use 200g salmon fillet, 200g smoked haddock and 300g cod loin. (Give or take!) Alternatively, just buy a couple of packets of mixed fish at the supermarket
2. 150 g king prawns
3. 1 carton cheese sauce (ideally c.350g but carton volumes vary)
4. 2 eggs
5. 650 g potatoes. More potatoes can be used if the casserole is big enough and if a deeper topping is wanted
6. Butter and milk (for mashing)
7. A few capers (optional)
8. Sea salt and pepper
9. 2-4 cherry or similar tomatoes (optional garnish), sliced

Instructions to make to make Fish Pie

1. Hard-boil the eggs, cool and peel. Cut each egg in half, lengthways.
2. Simultaneously poach the fish in a large, shallow pan. I usually just bring to the boil and after 1 minute turn off the heat and leave on our electric hob to cool for 5 minutes. A gas hob might require a bit longer simmering.
3. Drain the fish and lay into a casserole dish, removing any skins and bones as you do so. Try to mix the varieties up a bit so that each portion will have some of everything.
4. Wipe the prawns on some kitchen paper and add to the casserole, plus the optional capers if desired.
5. Add the cheese sauce and gently but thoroughly mix.
6. Gently push the halved, hard-boiled eggs yolk-down into the mixture, spaced so that each portion contains a half-egg.
7. Boil the potatoes and mash them with a generous amount of butter and a little milk. The mash needs to be firmish, definitely not sloppy, but capable of spreading.
8. Using a dessert spoon or similar, gently top the casserole mixture with the mashed potato and spread the mash out with the back of the spoon to ensure a thorough and even coverage.
9. Draw the tines of a dinner fork “backwards” to create a light ridging effect. This step will help to get some crispy highlights in the end-product but can be omitted.
10. Add the garnish of sliced tomatoes if wished. Indeed, add any garnish that you’d like!
11. Place the casserole on the middle shelf of the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes at Gas Mark 5 or the equivalent on an electric oven - my Neff Circotherm setting is 160C.
12. Serve piping hot with vegetables of your choice. Frozen peas are a quick and easy choice. I like broccoli and carrots with this dish.
