To get started with this recipe, we must first prepare a few ingredients. You can have fish pie using 13 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

This Creamy Fish Pie recipe was the one I cooked up on stage in a live-cookoff at the Big Feastival a few years ago (I added some crumbled up Piper's cheese and onion crisps on top for a little twist on that one). As part of the cook-off, we had to make a giant version so the audience could taste-test the recipe and vote for their favourite. And that audience was scarily huge (see below)! Combining fish, leeks, milk, butter, and potatoes, a fish pie is a one-pot supper dish. Some like to sprinkle a fish pie with grated cheese but this is optional, as is the addition of hard-cooked eggs seen in some recipes.
