Serve fish pie with peas or other fresh greens. A rendering of the classic British fish pie. This is a very tasty fish pie without the 'tweaks' of some newer versions; it was traditionally a relatively simple dish. One of the givens of most fish pies is the mashed potato crust, making it the fishy equivalent of a cottage pie, or shepherd's pie. It can be thick, thin, swirled, piped, or flattened, but it's always lightly crisped in the hot oven, and utterly delicious.
