Fish Pie

Got the idea from JamieOliver's Fish Pie. But I changed a lot of ingredients.
This is not a traditional fish pie. No pastry. No deep fried. And it dosen't look that tempting when it's served. But after a mouth full, I bet you would love it! Well, I am a big seafood fan. So I love everything with fish!
Bought whiting fillet, atlantic salmon, ocean trout and peeled prawn. Marinated them in the beurre blanc source together with just a little bit dry white wine.
Boiled the water, chopped up a couple potatos. When they were soft enough, drained the water. Added two teaspoons of butter, a pitch of salt and pepper, and just a little bit grounded nutmeg. Give them a very good mashed. Leave it for now.
Chopping is just not fun. The good part of this fish pie you don't really need to chop anything. Simply grated the celery sticks, carrot and chilli in the box grator which not only made the preparation so much easier but also saved the cooking time! Grabbed a bunch of coriandor and basil, finely chopped the stems and roughly chopped the leaves.
Added a good pintch of salt, pepper, the juice of half a lemon, extra virgin oliver oil. Then roll up the sleeves, get your hands in! After mixing everything: veggie, fish, seasonings, evenly spreaded grated parmesan, then a layor of mashed potato. Pop it in the oven for 45 mins! Here comes the Fish Pie! Hope you will like it! xxx
