A creamy but light fish pie recipe. This is one of my favourite comfort food recipes. This classic fish pie recipe is quick and easy to make, so I highly recommend giving it a try!
I like to enjoy my fish pie on its own, with beans, or with steamed veg! Its a very versatile recipe, to suit all your family’s taste!
Ingredients
- 1 kg Potatoes
- 30 g Butter
- 30 g Plain Flour
- 400 g Fish pie mix (salmon, cod, haddock)
- 1 tsp Mustard
- Frozen or fresh peas
- Frozen or fresh sweetcorn
- Fresh parsley & chives
Can you make fish pie in advance?
You can make the fish pie in advance by making the pie, covering it with the mashed potato, cover with cling film and refrigerate until baking. This is better than baking it and reheating it again which could result in the fish being overcooked and dry.
