Try this spin on a fish pie and top with gnocchi instead of regular mashed potato. It takes just 30 minutes to make so is perfect for a balanced family meal.

Ingredients:

- 350g gnocchi

- 200ml semi-skimmed milk

- 2 tbsp cornflour

- 400g fish pie mix , or a mix of salmon, smoked haddock and prawns

- 4 spring onions , sliced

- 1 tbsp chopped chives , or 1/2 tbsp finely chopped tarragon

- 150ml reduced-fat crème fraîche

- 1 tsp capers , drained

- 200g frozen peas

- 1 tsp olive oil

- 250g long-stem broccoli or green beans, steamed, to serve

Method: Put the gnocchi in a deep ovenproof frying pan and cover with boiling water and a pinch of salt. Simmer for 2-3 mins, then drain and leave to steam-dry.

Combine a splash of the milk with the cornflour until you have a smooth paste, then add to the rest of the milk. Pour the mixture into the frying pan, then add the fish pie mix and spring onions, and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened and the fish is just cooked, about 4-5 mins. Season well. Stir in the herbs, crème fraîche, capers and peas, and bring back to a simmer.

Heat the grill to medium-high. Arrange the gnocchi over the filling, then brush with the oil and season with some black pepper. Grill for 5-10 mins, or until the gnocchi has puffed up and is starting to turn golden on top. Serve with the broccoli or green beans on the side.
