Ingredients

  • 1 Onion diced
  • 3 Cloves of garlic minced
  • 15 g Ginger minced
  • 2 tbsp Curry powder I used mild
  • 25 g Butter
  • 25 g Plain flour
  • 400 ml Milk
  • 500 g Fish pie mix
  • 120 g Peas
  • 10 g Coriander chopped
For the mash topping:
  • 1 kg Potatoes
  • 25 g Butter
  • 25 ml Milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C Fan.
  • Peel the potatoes, chop them in half, then pop them into a saucepan of cold water. Season generously with salt then simmer until they are tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat some cooking oil in a large pan over a medium to high heat. Add the diced onion and cook until it softens.
  • Add in the garlic, ginger, and curry powder and cook for a couple of minutes.
  • Now add the butter, then when it’s melted, add in the flour, and stir well. Cook for a further minute.
  • Pour in the milk, stir well, and cook until it starts to thicken. Once it’s thick, taste for seasoning, it will need some salt and pepper.
  • Turn off the heat, then add the fish pie mix, peas, and coriander. Stir well then transfer it to an oven proof dish, leaving at least a cm gap at the top.
  • Once the potatoes can break easily with a knife, drain them, and leave to steam dry. Once dry, mash them until smooth, then add the butter and milk along with some salt and pepper and mix until it’s smooth.
  • Spoon the mashed potato over the top of the pie, then use a fork to rough it up. Bake it for about half an hour. Then dish it up, and enjoy.
