4 x 325ml pie dishes

Method

Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Put the salmon on a plate and sprinkle with rock salt, then cover and chill for 20 minutes. Rinse the fish under running cold water and pat dry with kitchen paper.
In a large mixing bowl, gently mix all the ingredients, apart from the mashed potato and cheese, with a generous pinch of black pepper until well combined. Spoon the mixture evenly into the pie dishes, then cover each one with a quarter of the mashed potato. Drag a fork across the top to create lines if you like, then scatter the cheese over the top.
Bake for 25 minutes or until he filling is bubbling and the peaks of the potato are lightly golden and crisp.

You can use any fish you like, or use fish pie mix to save time. Salting the salmon (step 1) stops the sauce becoming watery. If you don’t have 4 mini pie dishes use a large 1.3 litre ovenproof dish.
