The ingredients needed to make Fish Pie:

- Take 150 g king prawns
- Get 1 carton cheese sauce (ideally c.350g but carton volumes vary)
- Take 2 eggs

Hearty, creamy and super-satisfying. "This delicious fish pie is a great excuse to pack in the veg, so use whatever you have to hand - even frozen peas! A Fish Pie fit for a king! Flakes of fish smothered in a creamy sauce, topped with mashed potato and a crunchy golden top. Use both smoked and unsmoked fish for best results - and it's economical!
Steps to make Fish Pie:
- Hard-boil the eggs, cool and peel. Cut each egg in half, lengthways.
- 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.
- 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.
- Wipe the prawns on some kitchen paper and add to the casserole, plus the optional capers if desired.
- Add the cheese sauce and gently but thoroughly mix.
- Gently push the halved, hard-boiled eggs yolk-down into the mixture, spaced so that each portion contains a half-egg.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Add the garnish of sliced tomatoes if wished. Indeed, add any garnish that you’d like!
- 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.
- Serve piping hot with vegetables of your choice. Frozen peas are a quick and easy choice. I like broccoli and carrots with this dish.
