Recipe: Delicious Easy fish pie

Easy fish pie. This fish pie is good enough for a dinner party and the kids love it, too. Serve with a green salad or green steamed vegetables like broccoli. Fish pie is a universal comfort food, we've given it a Spanish twist and a domino effect potato topping. You can throw in a few prawns too if you like but personally, I prefer it without. Then mix together some cream cheese, and crème fraîche with a little milk, some spring onions and some fresh herbs.

I used dill but you could use parsley or chives instead. Combining fish, leeks, milk, butter, and potatoes, a fish pie is a one-pot supper dish. Some like to sprinkle a fish pie with grated cheese but this is optional, as is the addition of hard-cooked eggs seen in some recipes. You can have Easy fish pie using 8 ingredients and 10 steps.
