A Simple Dairy Free Fish Pie topped with Delicious Mashed White and Sweet Potato for a comforting family meal.
There is something quite comforting about a fish pie - delicately poached fish in a creamy white sauce, something that can be hard to achieve if you are dairy free and with loads of dairy free readers, I figured I'd create a delicious Dairy Free Fish Pie that everyone can enjoy.
Also with Slimming Eats, keeping it as low fat as possible was also important and so for that creamy feel to this Dairy Free fish pie, I opted for light coconut milk. First poaching the fish in some stock, and the combining the flavoured stock with the coconut milk and some starch for a silky creamy sauce.
Traditional Fish Pie is topped with regular creamy mashed potatoes, made with lashings of butter and cream or milk. I went for a mixture of sweet and white potato. Sweet Potato is perfect for a pie topping, as it really doesn't need anything other than seasoning mixed in.

- In the meantime, place the potatoes in a steamer above boiling hot water, and steam until they break apart easily with a fork.( I prefer to steam as it stops too much water from being absorbed.)
- Once the fish is poached carefully remove from the saucepan with a slotted spoon, and break into smaller pieces and add to a an overmproof dish.
- Mix the starch with a little water to make a paste, add this into the stock that the fish was in, along with the coconut milk, and simmer on a low heat till thickend. Stir in some chopped parsley and season with salt and black pepper.
- Preheat oven to 200c or 400f

- Spread this carefully over the top of the fish, smoothing over with a fork.
- Spray over the top with some cooking oil spray.
