Does anyone have a good fish pie recipe?

Answer 1

Fish Pie


1 1/2 lbs white fish fillets (or half white and half salmon)
2 cups milk, maybe ½ cup more,depending how thick you want the sauce
4 ounces margarine or butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 ounces peeled prawns
2 chopped hardboiled egg
1 tablespoon small capers
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup peas
1 finely chopped celery rib
1 tablespoon lemon juice

FOR THE POTATO TOPPING
2 lbs freshly cooked potatoes
1 ounce margarine or butter
2-3 tablespoons sour cream
a good grating nutmeg


Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Put the fish in a baking dish and season with salt and pepper.
Pour over 1 cup of the milk and dot with a few flecks of butter, bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
Strain but reserve the cooking juices, remove any skin from the fish and flake the flesh in large pieces.
Make the sauce, melt the rest of the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour and cook it for 1 minute, start adding the cooking juices bit by bit, stirring all the time, after that add the rest of the milk, if still too thick just add a little more milk.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper.
Mix in to the sauce: fish, prawns, eggs, capers, parsley, peas and celery, add the lemon juice and check the seasoning.
Pour the fish mixture in a 1½ liter greased ovenproof dish.
Mash the potatoes with the butter, sour cream and nutmeg, check the seasoning, and then spread this on top of the fish.
Bake in the oven at 400F for 30 –40 minutes.

Answer 2

No!No!No! First, go to the fishmonger (or fish counter in your local supermarket) and ask for any offcuts for a pie - any white fish, some smoked haddock & a few prawns are a good bet. You'll also need fish stock: Either buy it fresh, use a stock cube, or make it yourself from scratch - plenty of recipes about. Cook the fish in milk or single cream until just done - just five or six minutes should do. Set aside the fish in an oven proof dish, then add the stock & some white wine to the pan you cooked the fish in & reduce the sauce until thick. Add some parsley at the last minute, pour over the fish & pipe mashed potato onto the top. Put in an oven at 200 degrees for about 20 minutes to heat through & brown.

Answer 3

Salmon Pie

Pastry for two crust pie.

16 oz. can of salmon, skin removed
1 pound (about 3-4 medium) potatoes, cooked and mashed
1 medium onion, minced
Salt and Pepper

Saute onion in a small amount of oil. Then, combine salmon, potatoes, and onion. Salt and pepper to taste. Place mixture into pie crust and seal the top crust. Brush top crust with egg yolk.

Bake pie at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

(Suggestion: My husband loves this pie served with softened butter that can be spread on top.)

Hope you enjoy!
