Default Fish pie

"graham" wrote in message news
When I was buying the ingredients for the annual seafood lasagne, I knew
I needed enough to double the amount of sauce as no matter what the
recipe, there is *never* enough sauce. The doubling factor mistakenly
influenced everything else and I bought too much fish and shrimp.
Therefore, I decided to use it up, with some long-stored steelhead trout
in the freezer and make fish pies.
I poached the trout in fish stock (Knorr cubes) and flaked it. I made a
white sauce by infusing milk with shallots and bay leaves - adding it to
a roux made with butter and flour. Then I formed alternating layers of
sauce, Steelhead, sole and shrimp in a deep pie dishes, topping them off
with mashed potato. Baked for about 30 minutes at 350F, the smallest one
was delicious. The others will go into the freezer for later.
