Fish and asparagus pie by Morti ( copyright ltd to one beer if seen at a festival)

Cook up some potato, mash with butter and milk and white pepper.

Cook some mixed fish ( tonight was salmon, smoked haddock and cod) in milk with fresh parsley, salt and pepper until just flaky. Flake and put aside.Save the milk.

Into a casserole dish slice up mushrooms, spring onion and asparagus.

Sauce

Melt a chunk of butter into a pan, stir in a tablespoon of flour and then stir together to a smooth paste, add in the milk you cooked the fish in, some thai fish sauce (if available) or fish stock, more parsley and a dash of pepper or cayenne sauce.

Into the casserole dish add all the ingredients then pour sauce over the top. Put a layer of mashed potato on top. I then add a sprinkle of paprika and some anchovies in a pretty pattern, Bake for about 30 mins in a moderate oven, longer if you like your asparagus soft.

Nom, nom, nom.
