• 400 grams, skinless and boneless white fish fillets

• 1 bay leaf
• 250 milliliters low-sodium vegetable broth
• 150 grams plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh dill
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 700 grams, peeled and diced potatoes
• 100 milliliters milk
• 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, sliced leek, diced carrot, and diced zucchini. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 3

Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and continue to cook for another 5 minutes until the tomatoes become soft and the mixture becomes fragrant.

Step 4

Cut the white fish and salmon into bite-sized pieces. Add them to the pan along with the bay leaf. Stir gently to combine with the vegetables.

Step 5

Pour in the vegetable broth. Simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the fish to cook through. Remove the bay leaf.

Step 6

Stir in the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped dill, and fresh parsley. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

In a separate pot, place the diced potatoes in salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until they are tender.

Step 8

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the milk, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and nutmeg. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with a little salt if needed.

Step 9

Pour the fish mixture into a baking dish. Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the top, making sure to cover the edges.

Step 10

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the top is golden and the pie is heated through.

Step 11

Allow the fish pie to cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with extra dill or parsley, if desired.
