Fish And Potato Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Peel and boil the potatoes until soft.
• Drain and mash with 1/2 ounce butter and the tablespoon of milk.
• Add the cheese and mix well.
• In a wok or frying pan, gently fry the onions and garlic in 1 oz butter until soft and transparent.
• Add the fish,parsley, cream, lemon juice and salt and pepper to the wok or frying pan and mix well.
• Place the fish filling into a casserole dish.
• Top with the potatoes.
• Sprinkle the parmesan cheese on top of the potatoes.
• Place the sliced tomatoes on top of the potatoes.
• Divide the remaining 1/2 oz butter on top of each tomato slice.
• Bake in a medium pre-heated oven for 40- 50 minutes.
• Serve.

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes for 10-15 mins until tender. Drain and mash with the nutmeg, cream, butter and some seasoning. Leave to cool slightly, then stir in the egg yolks and chill until ready to use.
• While the potatoes cook, make the sauce. Heat the butter in a large pan. Add the shallots, fennel seeds and star anise, and cook until the shallots are soft, about 5 mins. Add the vermouth, bubble and reduce until there is a syrupy glaze left - this will take 10-15 mins. Add the stock and continue bubbling until the liquid has reduced by half. Add cream and return to the boil for 2 mins, then strain and return to the pan.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Add the fish pieces to the cream sauce and poach for 2 mins until just cooked. Fold through the peas, hard-boiled egg and herbs, season and add a little lemon juice. Portion the fish sauce into individual dishes or 1 large dish. Top with the mashed potato: either pipe on with a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle or simply spoon on top and rough up with a fork. Dot the top with a little extra butter, then bake for 15 mins for small dishes or 30 mins for a large one, until golden and bubbling.

Steps:

• Place cubed potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain.
• Transfer potato cubes to the bowl of a stand mixer. Blend gently, adding cubed butter and milk. Add in eggs and mix only until mashed potatoes reach your desired consistency, or finish by hand if needed;overmixing will yield gluey potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• While potatoes are boiling, heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and thyme and saute until onions are soft and browned, about 5 minutes. Deglaze with vermouth and cook until alcohol has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Whisk in flour. Slowly whisk in stock and milk and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes. Sauce should be fairly thick, but if it's too thick you can thin it out with a little bit of additional stock. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. Turn off heat and stir in the half-and-half and parsley.
• Scatter salmon, cod pieces, and shrimp onto the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Drizzle lemon juice over the top of the seafood.
• Pour prepared sauce over seafood and stir gently to combine. Spread prepared potatoes over the top and fluff with a fork, then sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until potatoes are evenly browned all over, seafood is cooked through, and pie is bubbly and piping hot, about 20 more minutes.
• Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Drizzle the oil over a large baking tray and slide into the oven to heat up. Tip the potatoes into a large pan, cover with water and season with salt. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 mins. Drain and leave to steam-dry.
• Carefully remove the baking tray from the oven and tip in the potatoes. Sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper and turn to coat in the oil. Roast for 35-40 mins until crisp, turning halfway through.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a medium heat and cook the shallots for 5 mins until softened. Pour in the wine and simmer for 2 mins until it has reduced. Sprinkle in the flour and stir until you have a paste.
• Gradually whisk in the milk until you have a smooth sauce, then stir in the mustard and cream. Simmer for 2 mins, whisking occasionally. Tip in 100g of the cheese, the peas and fish pie mix, cover and cook for 8 mins more, stirring occasionally until the peas have defrosted and the fish is almost cooked through. Stir in the parsley and lemon zest and juice, then season to taste.
• Pour the filling into a deep 20 x 25cm casserole dish and scatter the roasted potatoes over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Turn down the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and bake the pie for 15-20 mins until the filling is bubbling at the edges. Serve with winter greens or a crisp salad.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas mark 6.
• Put 1kg potatoes, peeled and halved, in a saucepan and pour over enough water to cover them. Bring to the boil and then simmer until tender.
• When cooked, drain thoroughly and mash with a splash of milk and a knob of butter. Season with ground black pepper.
• Put 25g butter, 25g plain flour and 4 finely sliced spring onions in another pan and heat gently until the butter has melted, stirring regularly. Cook for 1-2 mins.
• Gradually whisk in 400ml milk using a balloon whisk if you have one. Bring to the boil, stirring to avoid any lumps and sticking at the bottom of the pan. Cook for 3-4 mins until thickened.
• Take off the heat and stir in 320g-400g mixed fish, 1 tsp Dijon or English mustard, a small bunch of finely snipped chives, handful of sweetcorn and handful of petits pois. Spoon into an ovenproof dish or 6-8 ramekins.
• Spoon the potato on top and sprinkle with a handful of grated cheddar cheese.
• Pop in the oven for 20-25 mins or until golden and bubbling at the edges. Alternatively, cover and freeze the pie or mini pies for another time.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12x7-inch casserole dish.
• Slice potatoes 1/8 inch thick and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until barely soft, 3 to 5 minutes; set aside.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Increase heat to medium and gradually whisk fish stock and milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook and stir until the mixture is thick and smooth, about 10 minutes. Stir in 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese, nutmeg, and pepper. Remove from the heat.
• Layer 1/2 of the potatoes, 1/2 of the onion, and 1/2 of the spinach in the prepared casserole. Follow with white fish fillets and flaked salmon, then remaining onions, spinach, and potatoes. Pour all of the white sauce over top and sprinkle with Parmesan and remaining Cheddar.
• Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until center is hot and white fish flakes easily with a fork, about 40 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200c.
• Bring a pan of water to the boil add the potato slices, return to the boil and and parboil for 3 minutes.
• Melt a third of the butter in a seperate pan over medium high heat; add the leeks and saffron, season with salt and pepper. Cover and sweat the leaks over medium heat for 10 minutes or until soft, add the lemon juice and set aside.
• Meanwhile, grease an ovenproof dish with some of the butter. Season the fish and potatoes with salt and pepper.
• Place half the potatoes in the greased dish, then half the fish, all the leeks, another layer of fish and lastly the rest of the potatoes overlapped across the top.
• Sprinkle over water or stock, cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile process bread, garlic, parsley and zest until mixture resembles medium-fine crumbs.
• Remove foil from fish dish top with breadcrumb mix, dot with remaining butter.
• Return to oven uncovered and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until crumbs are golden brown.
• Serve pie with vegetables or simple green or tomato salad.
