Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Prick the potatoes all over with a fork and sprinkle with a little sea salt. Bake for 1 hour or until tender. (If you want to speed things up, you can do this first stage in the microwave – cook for approximately 10 minutes, flipping halfway.)
step 2
If the fish pie mix pieces are large, cut into smaller bite-sized pieces. Put the fish, crème fraîche, mustard, chives and some seasoning into a pan and very gently heat through for 3-4 minutes. Cool.
step 3
Halve the potatoes and scoop out the flesh into a bowl, leaving a 1/2 cm shell.
step 4
Mash the scooped-out flesh, then beat in the butter and cheese, and season.
step 5
Pile the fish pie mix into the shells, then pipe or spoon over the mash. Bake for 20 minutes until golden on top and heated through.
