Fish pie made with fresh fish
Description
Baking pies is always a hassle, especially when preparing them for a festive table. This fish pie made with fresh fish turns out to be filling, delicious, and attractive. The filling can consist of meat, chicken, mushrooms, fish (as in this case), and so on. I decided to fill mine with fish, eggs, rice, and herbs. Mayonnaise can be added to the filling if desired. Serve with tea or coffee.

Step 1
1. For this pie, you need to use fillet of sea fish. If you are using a whole fish, you must fillet it and remove all the bones.

2. Cook the rice and let it cool slightly. Rinse the rice thoroughly. I usually use ready-made dough, but if you have time to prepare yeast dough, you can make it yourself. Roll out the dough and cut it into the visual shape of a fish using a knife. Place medium-sized pieces of fish on top, then add the cooked rice and chopped green onions. I also add a boiled egg—it goes perfectly with all the ingredients.

3. Cover with the second layer of dough. Decorating the pie with dough is up to your discretion. I made eyes, fins, and scales. Brush the entire dough surface with raw egg and place in a preheated oven at 200 degrees.
