Recipe: "Cheesy" Salmon Fish Pie

Mar 04, 2013 08:02

This made two HUGE portions, which could easily have been divided into four with a side dish.

Ingredients
  • Two medium or four small salmon fillets
  • Two leeks
  • One courgette
  • Eight mushrooms
  • 6 - 8 potatoes
  • Vegan cheese to top if liked (grated)
For the sauce
  • Half a block vegan "cheese" grated (you could easily use dairy cheese, but I couldn't tell you the quantities!)
  • About half a pint unsweetened soya milk (again you could substitute dairy milk)
  • Parsley, black pepper and majoram to taste (you could experiment with other herbs)
  • Flour to thicken
Method
  • Preheat the oven to 200C
  • Cook the salmon fillets (mine were frozen ones easiest cooked in the oven, but do whatever works for your fish)
  • Meantime, dice and boil the potatoes
  • Chop the leeks, courgette and mushrooms and sautee gently till cooked
  • When everything is nearly cooked, make your sauce. I do it by making a roux with the flour, adding the milk, herbs and cheese, and simmering till thickened
  • Mash the potatoes with butter, adding a little salt and pepper if liked
  • Flake the salmon and pour it into an ovenproof dish, along with the cooked vegetables
  • Pour over sauce and mix thoroughly
  • Top with mashed potatoes, and a little cheese if liked
  • Pop back in the oven for 20 minutes or so, till browned and bubbly
