Recipe's preparation

    Pie filling
  1. Make a foil parcel by cutting two pieces of foil the same size as your top Varoma tray.  

    Put one piece on the top tray (folding edges up slightly) and lay your white fish fillets on top, add 1 MC of milk and season with salt and pepper.  

     

  2. Place second sheet of foil on top and gently fold edges of the two pieces together to seal the parcel (you will want to be able to unseal this parcel later without tearing the foil, to retain the milk and juice).

  3. Chop garlic, parsley and onion for 3 seconds, speed 5

    Scrape down and add 500g water to TM bowl

    Put lid on, add diced potatoes to bottom half of Varoma, put fish tray in place, cover with lid and cook on Varoma temp for 6 minutes, speed 2 (6 minutes is just a reminder to add the eggs in for the last 14 minutes of cooking time)

    After 6 minutes, insert basket with 3 eggs, return Varoma to position and reset timer for 14 minutes, Varoma temp, speed 2

  4. After cooking, remove Varoma and set aside (place lid underneath to catch drips)

    Put eggs in cold water to cool down so you can peel them easier in a moment

    Gently open foil parcel and flake the fish into bite sized pieces and set aside, retaining the milk and juices in the foil to add to the white sauce next

  5. Pour garlic, onion and parsley from the TM bowl into strainer and retain with the flaked fish

    Add retained fish juice and milk to TM bowl, along with the other 500g milk, flour and half of the butter

    Cook on 90c for 7 minutes, speed 4

    While this is cooking, peel your eggs and roughly chop them

  6. When sauce is finished add in the parsley, onion, garlic, white fish, smoked salmon, chopped egg, peas and corn and gently fold this through with the spatula, then tip pie filling into a casserole dish and wash TM bowl

  7. Return cooked potatoes to the TM bowl, add the remaining 50g of butter and mash for 15 seconds on speed 4 (you can use the butterfly for this if you want really smooth creamy mash, but I like mine a bit more textured...do yours for longer if required)

    Scrape mash mixture on top of the pie filing in your casserole dish and spread over top with a fork

    Bake for approx 20 minutes, 180c in oven until top is golden

    AmesinAus:Just cook the potatoes longer if they aren't ready (test with knife). The original recipe said 600 mls milk but I think this included the 100mls in the TM cup.

    Submitted by Wendy bauve on 24. November 2017 - 22:12.

    I was very happy to find this recipe as I used to spend much longer making a fish pie the regular way.
    I made quite a few changes to suit my own diet in the following way:
    I halved the fish and add the same weight in extra vegies (carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, beans) using coconut milk instead of cow's milk.
    Next time I might not precook the fish as I found it chewy (I used some leftover barramundi).
    I put grated cheese in the white sauce and on top of the completed dish then sprinkled with paprika.
    Very yummy!

  • Such a nice way to have seafood!...

    Submitted by PinkSwan on 14. February 2017 - 16:04.

    Such a nice way to have seafood!

    i used all salmon fillets and added a tin of drained crab meat to the sauce along with a little wholegrain mustard, also sprinkled some paprika and cheese on top of the potato (potatoes do indeed need 5 min extra).

    Might add a few chopped capers next time for a little extra kick.

    Submitted by LizzyLoc on 1. September 2016 - 22:15.

    Very nice, I used cream instead of milk and no butter at all. I used potato, sweet potato and swede for the topping and cottage cheese instead of cheese mixed in and whole grain mustard. White fish, no salmon. All because thats what I had in the fridge to use up and it was yum. i will make again and try with salmon and scallops...

    Submitted by Liem on 3. April 2016 - 00:03.

    Great recipe. I used salmon instead of smoked salmon. I didn't wash the bowl after the white sauce step, just scraped well. If a little white sauce got into the mashed potato, it didn't matter.

    Submitted by AmesinAus on 13. November 2015 - 19:08.

    Probably due to my lack of thermy experience, but I found this recipe didn't turn out so well. My potatoes where nowhere near cooked which I foolishly didn't check before mashing and baking the whole thing in the oven. I think I might actually try to somehow boil them in the water next time. Also there was way too much sauce - next time I will try 300g milk, 30g butter and 30g flour. Flavours are delicious even without the salmon, but I did add a teaspoon of EDC vegetable stock paste to increase the flavour. Will try again as I think some of my issues eould disappear with more practise. Thanks for sharing,

    Yummo!

    Made this for my family on the weekend and it was a winner? I used smoked cod and mixed seafood. Found the sauce a little runny but that may have been from the spinach I added on top of the fish and beneath the potato. Will be cooking this again  tmrc_emoticons.)

  • This is a incredibly simple

    Submitted by JENNIGRANDMA on 16. May 2015 - 10:36.

    This is a incredibly simple way of poaching fish.  Really ingenious.  I only used fresh ling.  So found it needed a little more salt which the smoked cod would no doubt have given it.  It was so delicious. This is always how I will cook fish in the thermomix from now on.  If the onion was sauted first I think that would be nice also.  I found it served 6 people, but then I did use 600g fish total. Sprinkled the top with cheese. Served with a crisp white wine. Volia! Congratulations on a fantastic recipe.

  • This was yummy..just found

    Submitted by Pamela Harrower on 7. April 2013 - 11:41.

    This was yummy..just found the recipe was a bit confusing when it said put the potatoes in with the remaining butter....what remaining butter???. I put it all in earlier

    I used the salmon fillet and the white fish but found it has maybe a little too much sauce for the amount of fish. I would use more fish next time for this amount of sauce. It would easily feed 4 - 6 and with 400grm fish just didn't seem enough.

    Thought my potatoes cooked have been steamed a little longer too but overall  YUMMY Thank you I will definately be adding this to my favourites.

  • Hello everyone.. can I

    Submitted by Linda Pether on 6. April 2013 - 08:37.

    Hello everyone.. can I suggest you use another type of fish instead of Basa please. There is an email circulating that is very informative on the process of this fish in Asia. Don't eat it please. It's not $7 a kilo because it's healthy. It's cheap because it's full of bacteria. Google it and you'll never buy again. There are so many fish to choose from in Aust waters that don't pose a risk to your family. Thanks for reading this
