Gradually add the liquid from cooking the fish, stirring well to mix it in. Add the broccoli, peas, prawns and parsley or dill, mixing together well. Season to taste.

6.
Break up the fish into large chunks, removing any skin and bones, and put them into the pie dish. Pour the sauce on top. Drain and mash the potatoes, season, then beat in the remaining 3 tbsp of milk. Pile on top of the fish mixture, and then bake for 25 - 30 minutes until piping hot and golden brown.
Cook’s tip: You could use leeks instead of broccoli, if you prefer.
