Step 1
1. If you enjoy fish dishes, then a fish pie made with "Napoleon" pastry sheets is a great alternative to fish salads and hot pies. To prepare this dish, we'll need ready-made "Napoleon" cake layers. You can buy them at the store, but if you'd prefer to make them yourself—feel free. I decided to save time, especially since unexpected guests dropped by.

2. First, we need to prepare the filling: sauté the onion and carrots in vegetable oil, then let the vegetables cool down. Meanwhile, boil the eggs hard and let them cool as well.

3. Mix the eggs with the sautéed mixture, then add the canned fish. I usually use pink salmon in its own juice or sardines with added oil. The fish should be mashed with a fork and any visible bones removed. Combine the fish with the eggs and sautéed mixture—now the filling is ready.
