    Sorry if this is a dense question, but if I make this as 4 individual pots rather than one big one how long should I then cool it for? I don't want to dry out the fish, but as the recipe suggests the pie & film cook simultaneously, I'm worried I will end up with raw pastry. Would it be better to cover the Pies with foil & cook the tops separately? Thanks!

    Didn't have the right quantities of fish so substituted with some chopped up hard boiled eggs and will add mushrooms also next time. Pie really nice and light although the picture displays a lovely creamy sauce, not sure what I did wrong but mine barely had any liquid! Would however make again as was light and tasty and very simple to make

    The creme fraiche split in mine.. so it wasn't nice and creamy as it shows in the photo. Also 30-40 was too long for the fish, it was a bit dry. The recipe idea is nice though, next time I will use half creme fraiche and half cream, or just more creme fraiche at a lower temp for the fish. I also finished it off with a quick grill to crisp up the filo pastry, as it was quite soft prior to that.
