Creamy Gluten-Free Fish Pie Recipe

Avatar for Becky Terrell
There is something supremely comforting about this gluten-free fish pie recipe. It is easy to make and so delicious. Succulent fish, creamy cheese sauce and good old mashed potatoes. I love it at any time of the year as it pairs well with a salad and white wine for the summer and chunky garlic bread and red wine for the winter. Perfect.

Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

  • 100 g Fillets of fresh fish (I used 2 smoked haddock)
  • 1 Medium onion finely chopped
  • 4 Large potatoes
  • 75 g Frozen peas, defrosted (3 ounces)

For the cheese sauce

  • 100 g Cheddar cheese, grated (3.5 oz)
  • 250 ml Milk (half a pint)
  • 1 Teaspoon of cornflour
  • 1 Teaspoon Italian herbs
  • Pinch Salt & Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Peel and quarter the potatoes and preheat the oven to 200c (gas 6).
  • Boil the potatoes for around twenty minutes, then mash them and allow them to cool.
  • Lay the fish fillets in an oven-proof dish.
  • Finely chop and fry the onion for about five minutes.
  • Add the onions to the fish.
  • Add the frozen peas to the fish.

How to make the cheese sauce

  • Make a paste from the corn flour and a little milk in a pan. Then add the rest of the milk stirring well.
  • Heat the milk and cornflour mixture slowly stirring constantly.
  • When you see the milk heating up add the cheese in handfuls and keep stirring until all the cheese has melted and the sauce becomes thick.
  • Add the cheese sauce to the fish add salt and pepper ( you can also add a tsp of dijion mustard if you like it.)
  • Top with the mashed potatoes, sprinkle with herbs, and a little more cheese if you wish.
  • Cook in an oven at 200c (gas 6) for around forty five minutes.
  • Serve with green vegetables.
