Method
- Bring 2 pans of salted water to the boil. Add the asparagus to one and the potatoes and mint to the other. Return to the boil. Simmer the asparagus for 2 to 3 minutes until tender and drain. The potatoes, cook for 5-7 minutes, until almost tender, then drain.
- Heat oven to 200°C. Heat 1tbsp oil in a large pan, add leeks and cook gently over a medium heat for 10 minutes or until soft.
- Add the wine and mustard to the leeks and cook for a few minutes, then turn off the heat and stir in the cream and dill until it has all combined.
- Arrange the salmon, haddock and prawns in a pie dish, spreading them evenly throughout. Add the asparagus. Season with salt and pepper and squeeze over the lemon juice, stir to ensure the fish is evenly coated. Then pour over the leeks and creamy sauce; mix together.
- Cover with potato slices, making sure to cover as evenly as possible to ensure the same cooking time. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle the rest of the oil over the potatoes. Bake for 35 minutes until the potatoes are golden and the fish is tender.
