Fish pie sauce can be a scary thing. Sometimes it’s gloopy like wallpaper paste. Sometimes it’s tasteless water. Not this one.
The sauce in a Charlie Bigham Fish Pie is rich, creamy, and a little bit boozy from the white wine. It coats every piece of fish like a cozy, edible blanket.

There are even little flecks of fresh parsley and chives floating around in there. It looks like something you’d get in a fancy restaurant, but you’re eating it in your pyjamas. Win-win.
The "For 1" Magic Trick
Here’s the secret: eating this pie makes you feel special. It’s not a “meal deal” or a microwave rice packet. It’s an event.
You can treat yourself like royalty. Put it on your best plate. Add a knob of extra butter on top while it’s still hot (yes, do this, you won’t regret it).
Maybe you pour a glass of wine? Maybe you watch a cheesy movie while you eat? The pie doesn’t judge. It just sits there, being delicious and all yours.
