Fish Pie


Fish Pie is not a common thing here in the US. The first time I heard of it, I almost thought it was a prank. I then started seeing it more and more. After mulling it over for a while, I brought the idea up to Alan. He was even more doubtful, but I was determined at that point. After research and much debate we settled on which fish we would use and our base recipe and went to work.


The guys loved it, I was a little reserved and one of our test tasters flat out refused (love you Barb). End result, we will continue to try different combinations. I think next may be an all shellfish version with lots and lots of butter. Hmmmm, I think I could definitely eat the entire dish for that one. All and all, this was good and was a nice change to be so completely out of our comfort zone.


With the Insta community being made up with so many nationalities, what is your favorite combo for fish pie?
