Method
 

How to Make Irresistible Creamy Curried Fish Pie
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure an even cooking process for your flaky crust.
  2. In a skillet, heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until it's soft and translucent—about 5 minutes.
  3. Gently lay in the fish fillets and prawns, cooking for approximately 5 minutes until the fish becomes opaque and slightly flaky.
  4. Pour in the creamy coconut milk, then sprinkle the curry powder over the top. Stir well and let it simmer together for about 3 minutes.
  5. Add the frozen peas and stir them in, cooking until they’re warmed through—this should take around 2 minutes.
  6. Spoon the seafood mixture into a baking dish. Roll out the flaky pastry to cover, sealing the edges well and cutting a few slits on top to allow steam to escape.
  7. Pop it into your preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until you’re looking for a golden-brown crust—deliciously inviting!

Notes

Optional: Sprinkle fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro on top before serving for a burst of color.
