Making fish pie can be a palaver - not this one! Our healthy fish pie is simple to make and ready in just over an hour
INGREDIENT :
500g floury potato, cut into chunks
1medium swede (weighing about 600g/1lb 5oz), cut into chunks
200g tub low-fat soft cheese with garlic and herbs
150ml vegetable stock,(we used low sodium stock)
4 tsp cornflour, blended with 2 tbsp cold water
650g skinless, boneless cod, cut into large chunks
100g cooked peeled prawn
1 tsp chopped fresh parsley
RECIPE DIRECTION :
Cook the potatoes and swede in boiling water until tender (about 20 minutes).
Preheat the oven to 190C/gas 5/fan 170C.While the potatoes and swede cook, put the soft cheese and stock into a large saucepan and heat gently, stirring with a wooden spoon, until blended and smooth. Now add the blended cornflour and cook until thick.
Stir the fish into the sauce with the prawns and parsley. Season with some pepper.
Tip the mixture into a 1.5 litre/2¾ pint baking dish. Drain the potatoes and swede, mash them well and season with black pepper. Spoon the mash over the fish to cover it completely. Bake for 25-30 minutes until piping hot, then transfer to a hot grill for a few minutes to brown the top. Serve with frozen peas or sweetcorn.
