Another quick and easy family recipe, for when time is minimal, but you (and your family!) still want a warming, tasty meal on the table.
This recipe is a real keeper, which I’ve made time and time again. It’s from an old magazine cutting which I saved over the years, a BBC Good Food magazine recipe. I have tampered with the recipe and made it my own.
We really enjoy it. Yes there are a few short cuts here, but I feel that it still counts as a ‘real’ recipe, not an assembly job.

Cheat’s Fish Pie
Inspired by a recipe in BBC Good Food Magazine. November 2001.

550g skinless, boneless cod chunks
2 small fillets salmon, cut into cubes (skinless and boneless)
handful of prawns, shelled
cup of frozen peas, thawed out
500g tub fresh Cheese sauce (from supermarket chiller cabinet)
400g packet long-life potato saute or rosti
large knob of butter.

1. Preheat oven to 180deg C (Fan oven otherwise increase by 20 degrees)

2. Place cod, salmon and prawns in an oven-proof dish, add peas and cheese sauce and stir well.

3. Break up potato saute/rosti well and scatter over filling, top with butter cubes.

4. Bake for 30-40 mins until top is nicely browned and golden.

  8. This looks like such a comforting dish, and super-quick judging from your recipe! I love anything that is coated in a cheese sauce, and I particularly love fish pies. Given the recent weather, I think a fish pie will be on the menu soon for us 🙂
