Three Fish Pie

Ingredients

• 1½ lb potatoes
• 4 tbsp butter
• ¼ cup milk
• 2 oz Gruyere cheese
• 2 medium leeks
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup dry white wine
• 2½ cups milk
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley
• 6 oz salmon fillet
• 6 oz haddock fillet
• 6 oz smoked haddock fillet
• 3 large eggs
• ½ tsp salt (optional)
• ¼ tsp black pepper (optional)

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 400F (200C). Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, then drain and mash with 2 tbsp butter and 1/4 cup milk. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a saucepan, add sliced leeks, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes until soft. Whisk flour with white wine in a small bowl until smooth.
3. Add 2.5 cups milk to leeks, bring to a boil, then whisk in the wine-flour mixture until thickened. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in chopped parsley and diced fish.
4. Cook the fish mixture for 2 minutes, then spoon into an ovenproof casserole dish. Slice the hard-boiled eggs and scatter over the fish mixture.
5. Spoon the mashed potatoes evenly over the fish, mark with a fork, and sprinkle with shredded Gruyere cheese.
6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden-brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
