Method

  • step 1

    Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for 5-7 mins, until almost tender but firm enough to grate. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Put the coley in a shallow saucepan and pour over the milk. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 mins. Drain the fish, reserving the milk, then set aside.

  • step 2

    Heat half the butter in a medium saucepan, add the leek, then cook for 5-6 mins until softened. Stir in the flour for 1 min, then remove from the heat. Gradually add the milk, stirring well between each addition. Return to the heat and stir until the sauce comes to the boil. Simmer for 2 mins, then stir in the parsley and mustard.

  • step 3

    Heat the grill to high. Flake the fish into large chunks, fold into the sauce, then place in a small ovenproof dish. Coarsely grate the potatoes. Melt the remaining butter, toss with the potatoes, season and scatter over the dish. Place under a medium grill for 5-10 mins until the potatoes are golden and tender.

Try poaching the fish in white wine and then remove the fish to a low heat covered in foil, add a fish stock cube to the wine/fish liquid and simmer onhigh to reduce the liquid. Add the liquid to your leek/flour rue, once you have used all of the stock then add milk.

Used fish pie mix and cod. Added a lot of salt and pepper as to me the sauce was quite bland. I’d probably chuck in at least a bay leaf next time. Having said that, it was still pretty tasty and easy to make. My three year old loved it. Nine year old hated it. Twelve year old liked it “apart from…

Awesome recipe. I added 1/2 leek, 1/2 red capsicum, 3 big mushrooms to the mix and used a little less butter. Still big thumbs up, even for my picky 3-yr-old eater

Olive oil works as well as butter, I use no butter in this.
