Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g White fish fillets (e.g., cod, haddock)
- 700 g Potatoes
- 250 ml Milk
- 50 g Butter
- 2 tbsp All-purpose flour
- 100 g Cheddar cheese (grated)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp Parsley (chopped)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and chop them into large chunks. Place them in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
While the potatoes are cooking, poach the white fish fillets. Place them in a shallow pan, cover with milk (reserving 50ml for later), and gently simmer over low heat for 5-7 minutes until the fish is cooked through. Remove the fish, flake it into chunks, and set aside. Reserve the poaching milk.
Drain the potatoes and mash them with 25g of butter and 50ml of the reserved poaching milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside.
In a small saucepan, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to create a roux and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the reserved poaching milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, and half of the grated cheddar cheese into the sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
In a baking dish, spread the flaked fish evenly over the bottom. Pour the sauce over the fish, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
Spoon the mashed potatoes over the top, smoothing them with a spatula. Use a fork to create ridges on the surface for extra crispiness. Sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over the top.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
Let the fish potato pie rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your hearty and delicious meal!
