Salmon Pie

Today is Gwynnie's salmon day! I was scratching my head, trying to find of something that she never tried before and i can hide vegetables in it. So I came up with salmon pie. It's not hard to make, you can use the ingredients that you have in your fridge.


Salmon Pie

150 gr salmon
1 large shitake mushroom, diced
brocolli, cut into florets, as needed
1/2 large potato
1/4 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
grated cheddar cheese as needed.

1. Preheat the oven to 150 C. Prepare and butter two small ramekins (about 7-8 cm in diameter).
2. Bake salmon in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Once it's done, flake it.
3. Soak shitake mushroom, remove the stem and diced into little pieces. 
4. Steam brocolli and potato until both are fully cooked. Once both are cooked, cut the brocolli florets and put in a bowl. Peel and mash or puree the potato, add half of the beaten egg and mix well. Mix the other half of beaten egg with milk. Leave a little bit of egg for the egg wash.
6. Put salmon, mushroom, broccoli florets and little bit of cheese inside the ramekins and pour in milk-egg mixture until barely covering the meat and vegetable. 
7. Top the ramekins with mash potato and brush with beaten egg for egg wash. You can sprinkle some cheese on top of the potato. Bake for 25-30 minutes.

You can use any kind of vegetable with this pie. It doesn't have to be mushroom and broccoli, other vegetables will do :)
