About Fish Pie

Caroline Hire’s family fish pie combines mixed fish with a milk-and-butter sauce beneath mashed potato. This representative follows the familiar sauce-and-mash construction, with cheddar on the surface.

Spring onions, chives and Dijon mustard season the filling. Sweetcorn and petits pois add small vegetable pieces beside the fish, while butter and milk enrich both sauce and potato.

The mashed-potato layer covers the soft fish filling, with a golden cheese topping. The published version can be presented as one family dish or individual portions.
