Fish Pie Time


Sooooo Ive been waiting for my Save With Jamie cookbook, greatly disappointed that it hasnt arrived yet but I havent let it discourage me from completely winging it with his "Sweetpea Fish Pie" 
Since moving in with my 4 3rd year housemates ive been determined to cook for us. Im so happy to announce that this complete guesswork of a "pie" tasted great! Granted, I shouldnt really call it a pie...more a soup but I know where I went wrong and will fix it for next time but no one has died and seconds were asked for :D 

Cod fillets poached in milk, s&p and rosemary (not my first choice out the only fish friendly herb in the cupboard) prawns, peas & a flour roux. Topped with not enough sweet potato, spiced with cajun seasoning and topped with cheddar, finished under the grill.
Despite the horriffic appearance it was pretty yummy, the prawns were perfect and the sweet potato (a diversion from what I can remember of Jamie's recipe) was such a winner. 

I love the joy of feeding people and them enjoying it. Now Ive started I dont want to stop, just to keep improving (and fattening up the housemates) 
Top satisfaction!
