How to Make Creamy Fish And Mushroom Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6). Butter a 1.5-litre ovenproof dish.
  2. Scatter 250g sliced mushrooms in the bottom of the dish. Add 500g fish fillets (cod, haddock, or your favorite) and season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Pour 300ml boiling milk over the fish and mushrooms. Cover the dish and bake for 20 minutes.
  4. While the fish and mushrooms bake, peel and chop 1kg potatoes. Cover with cold water, add a pinch of salt, and boil for 20 minutes, or until tender.
  5. Drain the potatoes and mash with 50g butter, 100ml milk, and salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Gently remove the fish and mushrooms from the baking dish using a slotted spoon, and set aside.
  7. Pour the poaching liquid into a jug and reserve.
  8. Melt 50g butter in a saucepan. Add 1 chopped onion and 2 chopped celery stalks and sauté until softened but not browned (about 5 minutes).
  9. Stir in 50g flour and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  10. Gradually whisk in the reserved poaching liquid, stirring until smooth and thickened.
  11. Return the pan to low heat and simmer until the sauce thickens further (about 2-3 minutes).
  12. Stir in the juice of ½ lemon and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley. Season to taste.
  13. Pour the sauce over the fish and mushrooms in the prepared dish.
  14. Top with the mashed potatoes, spreading evenly.
  15. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
