Recipe: Irish Fish Pie

Ingredients

1kg white-fleshed fish fillets and a pavé of Irish salmon
1kg potatoes
20 cl dry white wine
200g cooked shrimps
200g button mushrooms
150ml heavy cream
120g butter
50g flour
parsley
salt
pepper

Preparation

Preheat oven to 180°C.
Place half of the flaked fish pieces in a buttered ovenproof dish.
Sprinkle with white wine, parsley, salt and pepper.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.
Remove the dish from the oven and remove the cooking juices separately.
Fry the mushrooms in a little butter, then place them in the dish with the fish.
Add the shrimp and place the rest of the fish on top.
Bring a pot of salted water to the boil and immerse the potatoes in it for 25 minutes.
Once cooked, purée and set aside.
In a saucepan, melt the flour and remaining butter to make a sort of béchamel sauce.
When the mixture turns a roux, add the fish cooking juices, and stir in the crème fraîche.
All that’s left to do is pour the sauce over the fish, and spread a layer of mashed potatoes over the dish.
Bake at 220°C for 25 minutes.
Serve hot with a pint of Guinness.
