Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion and leek, and cook for 5-10 mins until soft. Add the garlic and flour and cook, stirring, for 1 min.
- Stir in the crème fraîche, vegetable stock, lemon juice and mustard; bring to a gentle simmer. Add the spinach and stir until beginning to wilt, then add all the fish and prawns. Cook for another 2 mins, then stir in the herbs; season. Spoon into a 1.5ltr baking dish.
- Toss the parsnip ribbons in the remaining oil. Scatter on top of the pie to cover the filling and bake for 10-12 mins until crisp and golden.
