I made two of these to put in freezer, we had one for tea tonight. It was so tasty, my family loved it. Will definitely make them again. They were so easy to prepare, and all I had to do tonight was pop in the oven and steam some veg! Perfect. Love your channel, looking forward to some more new ideas.
Hi this is Eileen again, just going to batch cook again since October! Hubbers and I have decided not to eat beef anymore, so we have chicken and pork to cook, so I will be looking for those meats to batch cook. You are the best thing that happened to me! thank you xx
I just recently found your site while searching for fish cake recipes. Your videos are very well done, informational and of the proper length. Keep up the good work, I'll be watching many more.
I'm mesmerised by these videos, I've watched quite a few back-to-back now. It is such a fantastic concept, and excellently executed (so much attention to detail). The brand, the videos, the ideas and most importantly your personality is truly inspirational. It would be really useful for someone like me that is starting out with their own brand to know how you got started and got to where you are now, if you have a few spare minutes please write a blog post about that!!! Well done and I've no doubt you'll be on TV soon!
just joined and am impressed - 84 yrs old and need to 'batch' cook because of standing too long. will be making fish pie soon for one and for 4 for visitors.
Mikki, so glad you are enjoying the channel, hope you enjoy making the Fish Pie, I will be putting new recipes up every couple of days, happy batching x
I have never seen your videos beforehand it looks brilliant, but I thought you couldn't freeze double cream unless it was whipped? Also did you make up your mash yourself or buy it?
Thanks for the video. Fish pie looks great. I found your channel last week and made the 10 frozen meat meals straight away. I made the Bride's Chicken as well, which was delicious, I have never heard of it before. I have always loved the idea of batch cooking so really enjoy your videos. Thanks again from another New Zealand viewer.
Hi, please can you tell me if you use the frozen fish pie mixes you can get for the fish pie? I figure if it’s going in the freezer anyway it should be fine. Thanks!
no i always use fresh, you could use frozen but need to work extremely fast so it doesnt defrost as you make it into the pie and get it in the freezer. I would recommend the fresh always
I've never made sauce like this, interesting sounding recipe. My fella would demand loads of cheese in the sauce & on the top too tho. Gonna give it a try 👍
Oh I just replied to another comment giving you my website details, so glad you found it ( cool new site being worked on as we speak, should be out by christmas). The spoons are from Amazon from Kitchen Craft, colour works, they are brilliant as they measure well but work perfectly for portioning out too due to the shape. I use them daily. Thanks for watching very much appreciated.
This is one type of approach! I think i might prefer to make a Sauce,Poach the Fish,cook up some onions,Cel and Carrots,then the mash,add some cheese&Bake!
Hi can I ask is the fish pie mix already frozen? I’m just looking at ordering one from Asda to give it a try but it’s a frozen bag, can it be frozen again after the pie is made? Does it need to be defrosted before cooking x
Best to buy fresh fish pie mix rather than frozen that way you aren't defrosting and then refreezing. You can cook straight from frozen! Hope that helps!
Great idea! I love fish pie. Can I ask was ur mash frozen when in the small batch and then do you re freeze it when u make the pie? Cheers from New Zealand !
the mash comes fresh from the supermarket here in the UK (not sure if you get ready made mash in NZ. I then freeze it once the pie is made. Hope that makes sense great to have an NZ follower
@@TheBatchLady Thx for that. Please keep the ideas and recipes coming. I love cooking extra and having meals ready just to make things easier with working full time. I love your channel xx
Marie Gill - hi Marie, I live in Nz as well. If you look on the supermarket freezer near the frozen chips there are frozen mash potatoes, they are fabulous so quick and easy to use. Cheers
Hi Barry and Prue, the ready packed fish pie mix we get in the UK is an equal mix of white fish, smoked white fish and salmon. The packs are about 340grams - I hope that helps! Happy batching
I make this once a week, it's lovely! I still have lots of your recipes in my freezer and am so grateful for your teaching xx
Wonderful! x

Hi, love these videos, just hopped over to your website. Also where did you get those measuring cups that look like giant spoons?

Do I need to defrost this before putting cooking?
no, simply cook from frozen it just takes double the time!. Happy batching
Hi, what is in the FIsh Pie Mix that you use please. Can't source this mix from our supermarkets :)
Hi Barry and Prue, the ready packed fish pie mix we get in the UK is an equal mix of white fish, smoked white fish and salmon. The packs are about 340grams - I hope that helps! Happy batching
Love vlogs
Did you cook the mash from fresh potatoes
Probably frozen, everything she uses seems to have seen a freezer.
I am actually Eileen, my husband is George ha ha
Thought you could not freeze mashed potatoes
yes they freeze really well just make sure to keep them in an airtight container!
I'm very addicted to your channel. only negative thing is you really should tie your hair back.
Ready made mash what the F**k puts me right off. Lazy fish pie
