Preparation
Step 1
Pre-heat oven to Gas 6: 400F - shelf on third runner from top.
Step 2
Brush the inside of a medium-size pie dish (11/2 pint) with melted margarine.
Step 3
Melt the margarine in a saucepan & add the flour.
Stir & cook until the mixture bubbles, then remove from heat & gradually stir in the milk & fish stock.
Return to the heat & bring to the boil, then over a low lower heat, cook for 3 minutes, stirring all the time.
Step 4
Stir in the fish, chopped parsley, (if using) & season well. Place in the pie dish.
Step 5
Mash the potatoes, adding the margarine, milk & fish stock.
Beat until they are smooth & creamy.
Step 6
Carefully spread the mash completely over the filling & smooth.
Lightly use a fork to mark the top.
Step 7
Bake in the pre-heated oven for 15 - 20 minutes or until golden brown & heated through.
You can replace the milk & fish stock with a cheese sauce, which works really well.
