  • 480 ml Fish Stock
  • 2 Small Tubs Philadelphia Lightest
  • 2 Tbsp Parsley

Instructions

  • Peel your potatoes and dice them and load the potatoes into the slow cooker with half the butter or margarine, salt, pepper, and mixed herbs and the fish stock. Allow to slow cook for 90 minutes on high to create soft mashed potatoes. After 90 minutes put the potatoes to one side in a suitable bowl and add the milk and other half of the butter.

  • Whilst the potatoes are cooking in the slow cooker, place the fish fillets into a sieve, with a bowl below to catch the excess liquid. Sit the fish in the sieve for at least 20 minutes to drain any excess water and stop your fish pie from being watery. Then dice your fish into medium chunks.

Notes

Fish. I highly recommend making a fish pie with frozen fish. Frozen fish if drained correctly makes a fantastic cheap and easy way to make fish pie. We used 2 400g bags of mixed fish from Morrisons which included pollock, smoked haddock and pink salmon. We then also used a bag of frozen pollock fillets.
Sauce. I always use a little mash potato as a natural thickener. It tastes so good, and you are already making mash to go with the pie so why not?
Stock. I love to use the leftovers from meals and make into frozen stock cubes. I always have a big batch in the freezer and in this recipe I used leftovers from an instant pot garlic mussels recipe.
