Ed's Fisherman's Pie

Okay, so I was at a loose end as to what to call this one. I was playing around with Fish Pie, but it's not only fish that's in it. Then I thought Sea Food pie, but I'm pretty sure it's not all sea food either. Now, I'm aware you could argue, if were the argumentative type, that fishermen don't really catch prawns, so maybe a Fisher/Trawlerman's Pie???? No, that's just silly. Anyway, without further ado.....

Ingredients-
900g potatoes
700ml milk
1 jellied fish stock thingy
85g butter
35g flour
3 onions, roughly chopped
5 cloves of garlic chopped
400g fresh salmon
200g fresh cod
200g raw prawns
100-200g grated Chedder cheese
Salt and pepper


Method:

1. Boil the potatoes in some salted water until they are soft, then add about 50g of butter (or to taste) and salt and pepper, and some milk (again to taste, but I donno......50ml) . Mash and whizz the potatoes until they are smooth and silky, then leave to cool.

2. Preheat the oven to 190°C.

2. While the potatoes are cooling, cut the onions, garlic, and the fish, and de-vein and clean the prawns. Then put them all in an oven proof dish of appropriate size.

3. Then add the milk, the rest (35g) of the butter, into a saucepan and bring to the boil, stir in the flour and the fish stock, and simmer for about 2 mins, making sure to stir continuously.

4. Pour the hot sauce over the mixture in the dish, making sure to mix it around a bit so the sauce gets everywhere. You may not need all the sauce, just fill it to about an inch below the top of the dish.

5. Pipe the potato over the top of the mixture, and top with as much grated cheese as you want. We went a bit over board on the cheese, but it was gooooood! :)

6. Bake in the middle of the oven for 25 to 30 mins.


There you have it, and damn was it good! It's also our lunch for the week. Not the cheapest of the recipes, but it is really tasty, and also has fish in it, which they say we should eat more of!
