Instructions
- Preheat oven to 390ºF/200ºC.
- Heat the oil in large frying pan and add the chopped onion.
- Sauté the onion for 2 minutes until softened. Add the butter and let it melt.
- Add the flour to the onion and stir well, then cook for a minute.
- Combine the broth/stock and cream cheese, then slowly pour it over the onion mixture.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 5-6 minutes until very thick.
- Remove the pan from the heat then add in the fish chunks, lemon juice, herbs and seasonings.
- Use the top of one of your ramekin to cut out 4 disks from the pastry sheet.
- Spoon the fish mixture into the 4 ramekins and top each with a pastry disk.
- Use a sharp knife to pierce the top of each pie and then use a pastry brush to glaze the top of each pie with a little bit of milk.
- Bake the pies for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed up.
Notes
- You can use one type of fish, or mix it up and use 2 or 3 different types. You just want to ensure that you have 1.7lb/800g in total. See the bulk of the post for a longer list of great fish ideas. But some great choices are:
- I tend to use my homemade shrimp stock for this recipe but you can use seafood stock or vegetable broth for this recipe.
- I use low fat cream cheese here. Just ensure it has come to room temperature so it is soft and will melt easily.
