Creamy Salmon Pie

This Creamy Salmon Pie is what dreams are made of on a cold winter’s night! Serve it alongside a mustard sauce and some fresh vegetables, steamed and buttery. I think people tend to associate pies with meat than with fish, but I love the creamy, chunky filling of this salmon pie recipe, flavored with garlic, onion, and thyme.

Salmon is a meaty fish anyway, and the crusty pie shell and mashed potato matches it perfectly. Using store-bought pie shells takes all of the hassle out of making your own pastry and if you buy a good quality pack, you won’t even be able to tell the difference! You can also use pre-cooked salmon instead of canned, so if you have any leftover salmon this is a great recipe for using it up!

So, how to make Creamy Salmon Pie?

Steps to make Creamy Salmon Pie

1	Heat the oven	5
Preheat oven to 400°F.
2	Cook the potatoes	15
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for about 15 minutes, until tender but not falling apart.
3	Chop the potatoes	5
Drain off the potatoes, leave to cool slightly and then cut into chunks.
4	Cook the onion and garlic	4
In the meantime, melt the butter in a pan and add the onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes, then add the garlic and cook for a further minute, until the onions are translucent.
5	Combine the ingredients	2
Add the onion and garlic, milk, thyme, seasoning and salmon to the pan of potatoes. Mash everything together until well combined.
6	Fill the pie	10
Place one of the pie shells into a pie dish or plate. Spoon in the salmon mixture, and then place the second pie crust on top.
7	Prepare the pie for baking	2
Use a fork to prick the top shell a couple of times, to allow steam to escape. Crimp the edges of the pie shell using a fork and trim any excess dough. Use aluminum foil to cover the very edges of the pie crust, so that it doesn’t burn.
8	Bake the pie	45
Bake for 45 minutes on a low rack, until the crust has turned a golden brown.
