  Did this for friends and we really enjoyed it. I left out the Pernod and the parsley! Quite a rich recipe. I should have allowed the wine to reduce for longer. On the whole very enjoyable.

  This was easy to make and yummy. Used double the amount of salmon as i didn't have any prawns and also left out the pernod. Added some of the cream to the mashed potato and a bit of parmesan.

  I made this dish a couple of weeks ago and my boyfriend and his mate said that is was of 'restaurant' quality! I used 3 shallots instead of 2, 2 leeks instead of 1 and 3 cloves of garlic instead of 2! I also used a few left over mushrooms I had in the fridge. Instead of Cream I used a reduced fat creme fraiche which worked absolutely fine and wasn't so rich. I also used a bit for the mash, as well as a bit of parsley and plenty of pepper. To finish off the dish i added a small scatter of reduced fat cheese over the top to give it a nice crisp look. We enjoyed it so much I'm cooking it again tonight, but this time I'm trying it with spinach with the original portions of shallots and leeks. x

  Raw Cook - how much low fat Creme Fraiche did you use? Would like to give this a try but the fat content is a little high for me because of the double cream so would prefer to try it with something a bit lower in fat.

  This is delicious - I too left out the pernod, used weightwatchers extra thick double cream and I used scrunch up filo pastry on the top to make it different.

  Much better than my last attempt at fish pie! I used creme fraiche (same quantities as the cream) and no pernod, and extra leek as I don't like pies. I think it could have taken more smoked haddock, especially as MrS and I both like smoked fish - next time I think I'll leave out the white fish and just use smoked haddock, salmon and prawns.....a good sign that I've been asked to make it again! (oh and I did some extra mash and I'm glad I did as I needed it all to cover the top!)

  Doubled the quantity but had to add additional cream. Delicious and all polished off so no left overs :(

  Really lovely and very simple to do. Like a lot of others I had no Pernod, so I ground up a few fennel seeds for the aniseed flavour instead, and I used Creme Fraiche instead of double cream. I also added a lot of freshly ground black pepper. Delicious!
