Multicolored fish pie, a step-by-step recipe with photos from Ekaterina Vlasova

Pies are filled pastries. It's the filling that distinguishes pies from other pastry items and gives them such variety. Pie fillings can be sweet (berries, fruits, cottage cheese, poppy seeds) and...

Our oven-baked fish pie made with puff pastry is truly special. It's simple to make and beautifully crafted. We take salmon fillet—preferably salmon or trout—and layer it raw in large chunks into the filling. The beauty of this fish is that it bakes beautifully inside the pie without preheating, resulting in a juicy and tender filling. For the perfect balance, we surround the fish fillet with a layer of spinach and top it with a white béchamel-like sauce. Our recipe for a multi-layered filling doesn't take much time to prepare. And the golden crust of puff pastry will hide a wholesome dinner worthy of a holiday feast.
