Fish
is a superfood, and it should be an essential part of our regular diet because
of its magical nutrients values. There are many ways to consume fish, but fish
pie is one of the supper ways to make your dinner table more healthy and
versatile. This supper dish with super taste is economical and effortless to
make. There is nothing to beat this creamy dish. That's why it is frequently
repeated at my dining. This fish pie is
made with a combination of different fishes so that you can use any readily
available type of fish. Fish pie is a smooth and cheesy dish with mashed fluffy
potatoes. Parsley and leeks add a lot of richness.
Fish Pie Recipe
If
your family is carnivorous and fish lover and you want to make them happy with
delicious food, try my supper recipe; I am sure everybody will clear their
plates and ask for more. A combination of unsmoked fish (regular fish) and
smoked fish (orange fish/salmon) gives the optimum level of texture and flavor.
But you can use only smoked fish as per your desire.
