Method
Method
- For the fish pie filling soften shallots and fennel with butter for 2-3 minutes and then add in your flour. After a further 1-2 minutes cooking out the flour add in your cider followed a few minutes later by the milk. Stir continuously until you have a velvety white sauce and add in bay, mustard, white pepper and nutmeg to enrich with flavour. Season to taste.
- Next gently fold in your haddock and prawns. Cook for 4-5 minutes on a low heat and then add in your peas and sweetcorn and allow to cool. Preheat your oven to 180˚C.
- Boil your potatoes and celeriac until soft and mash until smooth with melted butter, cream and cheese.
- Pour your fish pie filling into a large pie dish and place in your hard-boiled eggs and top with a generous layer of mash. Sprinkle with a little extra cheese and bake for 20 mins. Sprinkle with chopped chives to serve.
