I made a really good fish pie for fussy buggers at the weekend. Even Mother loved it. No prawns, no salmon (the usual hatred-inspirers), just smoked haddock and unsmoked cod. With hard-boiled eggs of course. I also made an Elizabeth David beef daube. You can get the really easy recipe from the Guardian if you google "Guardian daube Elizabeth David" (no shit, Sherlock). It's a winner as long as you stick to the top rump she specifies. I bought a big piece from Sainsbury's and cut it to size myself. I used pork rinds that I'd trimmed off some pork chops and kept in the freezer, but I left them whole and just fished them out at the end. I just used some streaky bacon slices cut up small instead of the chunks she specifies.
