Fish pie

For the first session back after Christmas we decided on this easy and comforting fish pie.

First we had to peel and chop potatoes ready to boil for the mash potato topping.

 

To increase nutritional value of this meal we used a mix of sweet potato and normal potato. This would also add some  extra flavour to the topping.

Whilst the potatoes were on the boil we got on with making the sauce.

For this we used a tub of low fat garlic and herb cream cheese, vegetable stick and parsley. 

On a medium heat we combined the cream cheese and vegetable stock until the mix was of a smooth and creamy texture. 

Once we added the fresh chopped parsley we had our sauce sorted. The appeal if this recipe was how quick and easy it was to make the sauce. This is something everyone can definitely make at home with very little effort.

We added a mixture of haddock, smoked haddock and salmon to the sauce and let  the fish cook for 15 minutes.

While the fish was cooking we mashed the boiled potatoes.

Mashing the potatoes was really fun and was a great way to expel some excess energy!

Once the fish and sauce were cooked we poured it into a dish and topped with our mash. 

Then it's in the oven for half an hour and it's ready!

We served with some broccoli but any vegetable would go well.
