Instructions
PREPARE THE POTATO TOPPING
- Boil the potatoes in cold salted water for 15-20 minutes or until they are cooked through. Drain well and crush the potatoes with fork, breaking them down into chunky and small pieces. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice and set aside.
MAKE THE FISH PIE FILLING
- Melt the butter in a large skillet, add the leeks and cook over low heat for a few minutes until softened.
- Stir in the flour to make a paste, mixing it in and cooking for a minute or so.
- Gradually add the milk, stirring it in, so that the sauce is smooth. Bring to a low simmer and cook until it starts to thicken. Stir in the salt, pepper, lemon zest and most of the herbs. Have a little taste and add some lemon juice and mustard if you like.
- Add the fish and cook for a couple of minutes then stir in the spinach so that it starts to wilt.
ASSEMBLE AND BAKE
- Spoon the filling into a 2 liters /2 quart baking dish and level. Add the crushed potatoes over the top so that they cover the filling. Scatter remaining herbs on top.
- Bake in a 200ºC (fan 180ºC) 400ºF preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until the potatoes are golden with crispy edges and the filling is bubbling through.
SERVE AND ENJOY
- Allow the fish pie to cool down for 10 minutes before serving. It is a full meal on its own but you could add some steamed vegetables on the side if you like.

Notes
- BAKE THE FISH PIE IN THE AIR FRYER You guys know how much I love my air fryer – especially now that I have the Ninja Megazone which has so much space I barely use my oven anymore!
- Make sure that your baking dish fits in the air fryer basket first. Bake at 170-180°C (340-360) for 20-25 minutes, adjusting the temperature if the potatoes are browning very quickly.
