Veggie Fish-Less Pie

If like me you have people in your family or friends who are vegetarian, you need a good alternative to serve at the same time as your meat/fish dish.                                                                                                                       This Veggie Fish-Less pie is perfect, as you can use exactly the same sauce and obviously mashed potato as the Fish Pie - Just omit the fish an top with a boiled egg instead.         

Making meals with veggies and meat eaters easy peasy!!

 Recipe: 

Serves 4 

900g/ 4 - Baking potatoes

150ml- Milk

30g- Butter

2 tsp- Mustard

Salt+Pepper

4 Eggs

White Sauce

85g- Butter

30g- Plain Flour

1 Pint Milk

3/4 tsp Smoked Paprika

2tsp Mustard

Salt+Pepper

Alternatively - Add Fresh Parsley for a lighter herby sauce. 

Firstly: Boil your eggs for 5-7 mins until hard boiled

To make the white sauce:

1) Melt the butter then add the flour and cook for 2mins 

2) Then add the (warm) milk slowly - whisking continually 

(If like me you want a lighter sauce - use half milk and half of the water used to boil the potatoes) 

3) Add the seasoning.

4) Add the sauce to an oven proof dish ( or individual dishes)

5) Add your sliced boiled eggs on top

For the potato topping:

1) Simply peel and cut the potato into chunks 

2) Boil until soft 

3) Mash with butter and milk

4) Add seasoning and mustard and spread on top of the sauce. 

Cook in the oven for 15-20mins until lightly brown.
