fish pies. Keep a look-out, and if you buy one you want it to be about 700–750g in weight for

Ingredients
-
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1kg potatoes
1 carrot
2 sticks of celery
150g good Cheddar cheese
1 lemon
½ a fresh red chilli
4 sprigs of fresh flat-leaf parsley
300g salmon fillets, skin off and bones removed
300g undyed smoked haddock fillets,
skin off and bones removed
125g king prawns, raw, peeled
olive oil
optional: a good handful of spinach, chopped
optional: a couple of ripe tomatoes, quartered
Directions
To prepare your fish pie
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6 and bring a large pan of salted water to the boil • Peel
the potatoes and cut into 2cm chunks • Once the water is boiling, add your potatoes and cook
for around 12 minutes, until soft (you can stick your knife into them to check) • Meanwhile, get
yourself a deep baking tray or earthenware dish and stand a box grater in it • Peel the carrot
• Grate the celery, carrot and Cheddar on the coarse side of the grater • Use the fine side of
the grater to grate the zest from the lemon • Finely grate or chop your chilli • Finely chop the
parsley leaves and stalks and add these to the tray
To cook and serve your fish pie
Cut the salmon and smoked haddock into bite-size chunks and add to the tray with the prawns
• Squeeze over the juice from the zested lemon (no pips please!), drizzle with olive oil and add
a good pinch of salt and pepper • If you want to add any spinach or tomatoes, do it now • Mix
everything together really well • By now your potatoes should be cooked, so drain them in a
colander and return them to the pan • Drizzle with a couple of good lugs of olive oil and add
a pinch of salt and pepper • Mash until nice and smooth, then spread evenly over the top of
the fish and grated veg • Place in the preheated oven for around 40 minutes, or until cooked
through, crispy and golden on top • Serve piping hot with tomato ketchup, baked beans,
steamed veg or a lovely green salad
