QUICK AND EASY FISH PIE
Easy and yummy fish pie, the perfect comforting food for beating the cold winter!
I had a lot of hungry teenagers at home for supper one day and I didn’t know what to cook as all my attempting ideas to try to please them were refused straight away! Ok, ok, ok!
So, I came up with something healthy, disguised with mashed potatoes and very famous in Great Britain : yes, you name it, a fish pie! Obviously it had to be quick as my hungry teenagers had a million things to do afterwards.
Please find a quick and easy fish pie validated by my teenagers. I had to be very rapid to take the picture as the dish disappeared very rapidly! I did not have the time to properly take a picture of it ;)
