Creamy Fish And Mushroom Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fry until soft. Stir in the garlic and mushrooms, season and cook for 5 mins until the mushrooms are soft. Stir in the parsley and cream. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Grease a 6-hole muffin tin with butter, then line each hole with a long thin strip of baking parchment. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and stamp out 6 x 10 cm circles. Press a circle into each hole to line. Roll out the remaining pastry (you may need to re-roll trimmings) and stamp out 6 x 8cm circles.
• Divide the mushroom mix between the pies. Brush the pastry edges with a little egg, top each with a pastry lid and carefully press the pastry edges together to seal.
• Brush with the remaining egg and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden. Allow to cool in the tin slightly before serving, or cool on a wire rack and keep in airtight containers for up to 1 day. Reheat before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; sauté until golden, about 7 minutes. Add Cognac; simmer until liquid reduces to glaze. Reduce heat to medium. Add tomatoes, cream and thyme; simmer until sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in another heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper. Add fish to skillet; sauté until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer fish to broiler-proof baking dish. Spoon sauce over. Sprinkle cheese over. Broil until cheese melts, about 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 230C/450F/Gas MK 8.
• Put the potatoes into boiling, salted water and bring back to the boil for 2 minutes.
• Carefully add the eggs to the pan and cook for a further 8 minutes until the eggs are hard boiled and the potatoes cooked.
• Drain the potatoes. Remove the eggs and cool under cold water, then shell and quarter them.
• In a separate pan, slowly fry the onion in a little olive oil for about 5 minutes, then add the cream and bring just to the boil. Remove from the heat and add the cheese, lemon juice, mustard and parsley.
• Put the fish, prawns, sweetcorn and eggs into an ovenproof dish. Pour over the sauce and gently mix together.
• Mash the potatoes with a little olive oil, seasoning and nutmeg. Spread over the top of the fish mixture and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the potatoes are golden.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Heat 3 Tbsp. dressing in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add onions; cook and stir 8 to 9 min. or until onions are tender and just beginning to turn golden brown. Stir in mushrooms and remaining dressing. Cook and stir 3 min. or until mushrooms are tender; remove from heat. Let cool to room temperature.
• Stir mozzarella into cooled vegetable mixture; spoon into crust. Mix egg and cream cheese until blended. Add milk; mix well. Spoon gently over vegetable mixture; sprinkle with Parmesan.
• Bake 40 to 45 min. or until filling is set and crust is lightly browned. Let stand 5 min. before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Prick each potato a few times with a knife (to prevent them from bursting) and bake on a baking tray for 1 hr-1 hr 30 mins or until soft when pressed. Cut the potatoes in half and scoop out the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork or ricer. Save the skins for another day. While the potato is still hot, mix in the cream and milk to make a smooth mash, season and set aside.
• While the potatoes are baking, make the fish pie mix. Put a large frying pan on a medium heat. Melt the butter and cook the leeks slowly for 10 mins until they are sweet and tender, then season and add the nutmeg. Stir in the mustard, then pour in the wine and reduce until there is almost no wine left. Pour in the cream and simmer for about 10 mins until reduced by half. Remove from the heat, and add the chives along with the lemon juice and zest. Taste for seasoning.
• Stir the haddock, salmon and prawns into the creamed leeks and transfer to a medium baking dish, then top with the mashed potato, smooth over to cover the fish, and scatter over the cheeses. Bake for 25-30 mins until the cheese has turned golden brown.
