Fish Pie

Following a weekend of fishing we had the not so unpleasant conundrum of finding different ways of cooking up all of our spoils without resorting to the freezer . . . and after a meal or two of fish with a side of chips or salad it is always nice to try something different. 

Fish pie seems to be one of those dishes everyone's Mum used to cook up for them, but noone wants to cook for themselves! Why not? It is real easy, and a great way to cram in the veges too! Super healthy comfort food? Yes please.

Ingredients:
Fish! (I had about two cups of fresh snapper)
And then basically as many different veges as you have on hand
I used:
1 carrot, grated
1 zuchinni, grated
3 tomatoes
1 cup spinach
4 spring onions
And of course, potatoes!

 
Preheat your oven to 200 degrees and put potatoes on the boil for mashing. While you are waiting chop up / grate all of the veges before mixing in with the fish in your chosen baking dish. Season and squeeze over a little lemon juice.


Mash your potatoes (I always use a dash of milk) and spread over the veges, sprinkle with cheese. Bake for about 40 minutes. 


Enjoy. Good idea to wait for it to cool down so you don't burn your mouth off like my Husband!
