1lb mixed raw skinned fish cut into chunks, including a couple of ounces of prawns - I like to use salmon, haddock and smoked haddock
1lb cooked waxy potatoes sliced
1 pint parsley sauce made with 2 oz flour and 2 oz marg.
Arrange fish in an oven proof dish, pour over the parsley sauce, top with sliced potatoes, then sprinkle over about half an ounce of grated cheese, dot with butter.
Bake for 30 - 40 mins. 200c

Bake for 30 - 40 mins. 200c That's roughly how I do it too. Except I flake the fish rather than cut into chunks, and I top with creamed potatoes. You're a bit mean with your cheese ;D |

I used to do it with cooked flaked fish added to the sauce Sleepy, but prefer this method now.  You can add more cheese if you with Sleepy  , I probably use more than half an ounce of cheese. Crushed crisps on top are supposed to be nice, but I haven't tried that as we seldom have any crisps in the cupboard - apparently they are fattening. ;D |

I love parsley sauce - must get some and do this one. Unfortunately for me and my nine-year old daughter OH won't eat prawns so we'll have to leave them out. But the world's your oyster with the fish isn't it? ("Scuze the pun).

Having cooked this dish a few times now, I have found that the sauce needs to be fairly thick! - I would recommend using less than a pint of milk for the sauce. |

We're having it again tonight, using salmon and pollock. It's a big hit here.  |

Glad you like it Debbie - it's a big hit here and far easier to make than the old recipe I had been using for years |

I think the fish pie would be nice with a chopped Egg in it too.
