Ingredients

• 5 medium Potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 stalks Celery
• 1 large Carrot
• 300 grams White fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock)
• 150 grams Shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 100 grams Crab meat
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Fish stock
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Peel and chop the potatoes into chunks. Place them in a large pot of salted water and boil until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Step 2

While the potatoes are boiling, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion, minced garlic, chopped celery, and chopped carrot. Sauté until vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Cut the white fish fillets into bite-sized pieces. Add the fish, shrimp, and crab meat to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes until just opaque.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the seafood and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the fish stock while stirring to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add the heavy cream. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens, about 4 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and ground nutmeg. Remove from heat and transfer the filling to a greased 9-inch pie dish.

Step 7

When the potatoes are done, drain them and mash with butter, milk, and a pinch of salt until smooth and fluffy.

Step 8

Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the seafood filling, starting from the edges and working toward the center to seal the filling in.

Step 9

Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the potatoes.

Step 10

Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 11

Let the pie cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley if desired and enjoy your Pirate's Pie!
