125ml white wine
375m hot fish stock
80ml whole milk

1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

- Transfer the fish pie mix into a ceramic ovenproof dish, filling 2/3 of the way. Let it cool.
- Preheat the oven to190C.
- Boil the potatoes until tender. Drain and mash together with the butter and enough milk to have a smooth, soft, mash. Season with salt and leave to cool slightly.
- Transfer the mash into a piping bag and pipe over the pie.
