Lovely recipe, and inLOVED the sound of the blackbird singing his heart out. Fantastic. Thanks. I’m adding Large King prawns sliced in two through the middle. And topped with cantal jejune cheese. I also agree with you over the wine !!!!!

[@seferinorino6951]

Memories from lockdown times. I’ll try this recipe for sure

[@jjiacobucci]

Awesome recipe ! Thanks for the advice using fish skin, mustard, and anchovies, for the sauce, and egg yolk in the potato mash !

I love his voice and the background music. Can't wait to try this during lockdown.3.

[@wurlitzer895]

A fabulous recipe, Mr Corrigan, and your beautiful, mellifluous Dublin accent made your explanation doubly enjoyable!

[@domurtag1978]

That's not a Dublin accent

[@Goldi3loxrox]

i like to put a little Colemans mustard powder and a couple of scrapes of nutmeg in my white source. just gives it a richer depth somehow. Oh and i always use a whisk to make sources. i always end up smooth and never burns the bottom of the sauce pan.

[@mariamowla1948]

Fantastic recipe really looks delicious well done 👍

[@ThiefOfNavarre]

Fantastic! My family have just asked me to cook a fish pie for the weekend.

[@susanruzicka2555]

Thank You, I will be making this ;-D

[@suemcdermott3522]

I am drooling! 😋😋

[@peterlancaster6834]

Absolutely beautiful and brilliant. Yum yum

[@neddyknacker]

This dudes awesome! 😂👌

[@elisabethj.v.beardsell9853]

We all have our unique version of Fish pie, I think mine is very unique! I add hard boiled egg, parsley, prawns, muscles, and any fish with fins!all good for dipping my soldiers!

[@YelpBullhorn]

Muscles? That’s meat. There’s no place for meat in a fish pie!

[@elisabethj.v.beardsell9853]

@@YelpBullhorn muscles( shellfish! In fish pie!

[@YelpBullhorn]

@@elisabethj.v.beardsell9853 I think you mean mussels! 🤣

[@elisabethj.v.beardsell9853]

@@YelpBullhorn sorry wrong spelling!

[@richardemlyn-williams6504]

I’m with you Elizabeth. I sometimes add scallops - soaked in water for a day ( because they expand !).

[@kenmoore7725]

Re film, turn camera landscape and use more close-up.

[@miladydewinter7770]

I'm going to try this but I'm going to use leek instead of onion - let's see how it pans out. Have subscribed x

[@catinthehat906]

An excellent choice, leek is by far the best compliment to the fish, especially if you can find leeks where they haven't trimmed off the top green bit that has the best flavour. The other secret ingredient is to add Thai fish sauce, instead of salt.

[@joulsw3739]

Looks delicious however it’s nothing like his Bentley Fish pie recipe in his book “Clatter of Fork and Spoons” .... how many versions of Bentley Fish pie is there? 😂. Guess I’d better get there and try it in person ... 😋

[@marywert5988]

Is there a recipe to print??

[@cntraveller]

Hi Mary, here is the recipe you can print out - www.cntraveller.com/article/richard-corrigan-recipe-fish-pie-bentleys Enjoy!

[@passiveaggressive6175]

It’s a shame the filming wasn’t a bit more close up

[@passiveaggressive6175]

So scare that he’s going to hit his head😂😭

[@dogcatdogable]

wait, what did he do with the paprika?

[@micky8034]

I was thinking the same thing lol. I would probably sprinkle a little bit on the fish before pouring the white sauce

[@panathasg13]

I was doing this type of recipe before seeing this video. English mustard and Smoked haddock will mask the smoked paprika flavour. In case you dont have smoked fish, you can dry rub (cure for 20mins) some pieces of fish in cubes, with smoked paprika...to give the smokiness in the dish.

[@miladydewinter7770]

Thanks for the tip - can't get any kind of haddock here (smoked or not) so I'll be using cod with smoked paprika as you suggest @@panathasg13

[@richardemlyn-williams6504]

I sprinkle a little smoked paprika over the fish or in the sauce. You don’t need much. I also use a little white wine vinegar in the sauce.

[@josechalho6003]

Camera is too far

[@godmademedoit1]

can't see anything

[@terrysadlier8456]

Why! English mustard😭

[@gmbrereton]

Garlic does not belong in a fish pie

[@coolbreeze253]

If he can't include a printable recipe, I can't bather to watch.

[@robertstancer4469]

A view from the UK. Nope, not my way of making fish pie. The onion is unnecessary, the cheese should be crisped up on top of the potato not in the sauce. His potato is too creamy and will end up making the sauce just thicker. Use olive oil to keep the potatoes texture and it peaks better for crisping. You will need more the 2 anchovies, i add 4/5. Never add fish skin as you saw, the faffing with a sieve is just more work with little back in flavour. Never take a "celebrity's" take on anything. It's just his way of making it. There are many recipes for everything and we all put our own take on everything we cook - a little bit of this & a little bit of that.
