Cod pie

Description

Delicious pastry for the whole family. You can use any white fish or red fish (such as salmon, trout, etc.) for this pie. In this recipe, I use smoked cod, which makes the pastry even more flavorful. The pie can be served with tea or alongside a vegetable salad. Usually, I serve it cooled.

Instructions

1. 1

   Step 1

   Place the cod in a saucepan, pour in the milk, and add the bay leaf. Put the pan over heat and simmer for 5 minutes on low heat after boiling. Remove the fish, take off the skin, and flake the fillet into pieces. Do not discard the milk.

   Step 2

   In a saucepan, melt the butter, add the olive oil and sauté finely chopped leek (only the white part). Add the flour and stir; cook for 1 minute. Pour in the milk (in which the fish was boiled), stir and simmer for 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Step 3

   Boil 3 eggs hard in advance, grate the cheese on a fine grater, and finely chop the parsley. Add all ingredients, including the fish, to the pot with milk and onion. Add salt and spices to taste. When most of the milk has evaporated from the pie filling, turn off the heat and let it cool.

   Step 4

   Roll out the puff pastry thinly. Line a baking dish with parchment paper, place one sheet of pastry in it, put the filling on top, and spread it out, leaving a 2-centimeter border from each edge.

   Step 5

   Beat 1 egg and brush the remaining edges with it, cover with the second sheet of puff pastry, and press the edges to seal. Brush the top of the pie with egg.

   Step 6
