Scallop pie

Date: October 4, 2006

Servings: 6

8 large scallops*
300 milliliters fresh milk
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
4 tablespoons average sweet white wine
1 pound fresh mashed potatoes

Clean the scallops and cut in half, then simmer in the fresh milk for 15 minutes. Strain, reserving the liquid.

Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and stir in the flour, cook for about a minute, stirring, then add the fresh milk gradually, stirring all the time to avoid lumps. Season with salt and pepper, add the sliced mushrooms and simmer for about 10 minutes longer, then add the sherry or wine and finally the scallops. When hot, transfer to an ovenproof dish and cover with mashed potatoes, making sure they cover the fish right to the edges. Dot with the remaining butter and bake in a moderate oven, 350 degrees F, for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the top is turning brown.
