Irish Cod Pie Topped With Mashed Potatoes
- 2 lbs skinless cod fish fillets, making sure all bones are removed
- 2 ounces butter
- 2 ounces flour
- 1/2 liter milk
- 5 ounces grated cheese
- 4 cups mashed potatoes
- 4 tablespoons softened butter
- Place cod fillets in the bottom of a 8x8x2 buttered oven dish.Place dish on a cookie sheet pan because there will be sauce that escapes and runs down the outside of the casserole dish.
- Make a cheese sauce by mixing 2 oz each of butter and flour, 1/2 liter of milk and 3 1/2 oz grated cheese cook till slightly thickened: pour over fish.
- Top with mashed potatoes sprinkle grated cheese over them and dot with butter.
- Bake in a hot oven (450 F) for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are golden brown.
- Optional -- I just made this again and put in 2 sliced scallions into the cheese sauce after it was cooked{step #2}.Garnish with scallions.
- Optional -- 1/2- 1 cup peeled and deviened Shrimp added unto the fish gives some added flavor as well!
