1 In a large, heavy-based saucepan, melt 50g (2oz) butter. Add flour and whisk in, cook for 2-3min until smelling toasty, then add wine, a little at a time, whisking until smooth between each addition. Pour over bisque and cream, whisk until smooth and bring to a simmer. Add fish and cook for 3min, until just opaque. Remove from heat and

allow to cool. Stir through lemon juice and season.

2 Slice potatoes as thinly as possible. Spoon the fish pie mixture into a 1.6 litre (2¾ pint) pie dish; arrange the sliced potato on top. Melt the remaining butter and brush over the potato. Sprinkle over the cheese.
