Stretching Your Dollar - Simple Fish Pie - Don’t Waste Food

We entertained last night and I over catered a little.

I peeled too many potatoes, chopped too much parsley. Our friend George, brought up freshly caught Trevally which I cut into Sashimi pieces.
It was delicious, so so fresh, we just dipped into soy sauce.
There was quite a lot, so I quickly put the overs in the fridge.
Now, a day older, I decided I should do something else with it.
What quickly came to mind. Fish, Potatoes?
How about a fish pie for dinner tonight?

I constructed a Bechamel Sauce, popped in the chopped Parsley
The zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
Next I added the fish
Find a nice little pie plate to cook in

Meanwhile I brought the potatoes to the boil, added some hot milk mashed them up
Beat it some cold butter

Spread it over the top
Voila
Ready to go into the oven

Dinner done
That's tonight sorted

Tomorrow night the actual leftovers : Lamb, Tomato and Potato Bake with Leeks and Peas
Tastes a lot better that it looks
Before we cut into it. Very tasty. tender lamb
