Steps

  1. Cook mash Preheat oven to high grill. Bring a kettle to the boil. Peel and dice potatoes, add to a pot and cover with hot tap water. Cook on high heat for 20 minutes.

  2. Prep pie Thinly slice leek. Pat fish dry and remove any remaining scales or bones. Cut into 6cm pieces. When potatoes have about 10 minutes cook time remaining, heat second measure of butter and a drizzle of oil in an oven-proof fry-pan on medium heat. Cook leek for about 3 minutes until softened.
