Ingredients

  • 200g Salmon, diced

  • 200g Firm white fleshed fish, diced

  • 50g Brown onion, diced

  • 100g Leek, sliced fine

  • 100g Corn, kernels

  • 200g Carrot, diced

  • 30g Butter

  • 30g Flour of choice

  • 200ml Milk of choice

  • Salt and pepper

  • 700g Cauliflower, chopped into florets

  • 80g Cheddar cheese, grated

  • 1⁄2 tsp Paprika

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 190oC.

  2. Sautee the onion and leek in a little olive oil until golden. Set aside.

  3. Melt the butter in a large saucepan, once melted add in the flour and combine together to make a roux to thicken the sauce.

  4. Add in the milk and season with salt and pepper. Whisk with the roux until the creamy sauce starts to thicken, add more milk if it becomes too thick. You want it runny.

  5. Add the salmon, corn and carrot along with the cooked leek and onion to a ceramic pie dish. Season well. Pour over the creamy sauce.

  6. Steam the cauliflower until soft, add the a bowl and blend with a hand blender until smooth. Season with salt and pepper and spoon over the top of the creamy fish mixture.

  7. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, sprinkle with the grated cheese and paprika and bake until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Carefully remove from the oven and leave to rest for 15 minutes before enjoying.
