Steps to make A Serious Fish Pie:
Fry the Shallots and garlic in a little butter.
Cut the fish into bite size chunks. Microwave in a covered dish until lightly cooked.
In a separate pan, use the butter, flour and milk to make a rue.
To the rue add the cheese, pepper, herbs, chives, lemon juice and zest, fish and shallots/garlic. Mix well but gently - try and keep the fish chunks from breaking up.
Butter the inside of the pie dish.
Take the pastry sheet and cut around the top of the pie dish to make the pie lid. Take a small serving plate and cut around this to make a larger pastry circle that will form the base of the pie.
Push the pastry base into the pie dish. Remove excess pastry from around the edge of the dish, making sure you leave pastry on the lip of the dish.
Add the filling. Then brush some beaten egg around the edge of the base where the lid will sit.
Add the lid. Push down with your thumb all along the edge, sealing the lid against the base.
Brush egg over the top of the pie. Then take a sharp knife and make a couple of small holes in the lid to allow steam/pressure to escape.
Bake in a medium-heat oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pie is a deep golden brown.
