Method of Preparation:
Mash Potato Mixture: Cook the potato. Mash well
with a little bit of butter and milk.
White Sauce :
Heat butter in a saucepan on a low fire, add 1cup of chopped leeks (celery
or spring onions) and stir until tender. Lower the heat or turn it off and stir
in 3tbs of white flour. Make sure that the sauce is not browned.
Now keep the sauce again on low heat, sauté in the cooked mushrooms,
then add the sweet corn and finally blend in the 300 ml of milk stirring continuously.
As the mixture thickens add 50gms of cheddar cheese and parsley. Stir for a
few seconds and remove from heat. Add salt and pepper to taste. The sauce should
have a thick consistency. Mix in 450g of the cooked white fleshed fish to the
prepared sauce. Now the mixture is ready.
Pour the pie mixture into an oven proof greased baking pan
or pie dish. Level the mixture. Fill the mash potato mixture in a piping
bag and then pipe out designs on top of the mixture. Decorate with a bit of
grated cheddar cheese. Bake in the oven until the crust become light golden
brown.
