Cod Potpies With Dill Biscuit Crusts Recipes

COD POT PIE / PIES WITH DILL BISCUIT CRUSTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Wash leek well and cut into 1/2 inch pieces.
• Cook leek, carrot and celery in butter over medium heat until tender, about 7 minutes.
• Add flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Stir in milk, 1/4 teaspoons salt and 1/8 teaspoons pepper; bring to a boil and then reduce to simmer, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes.
• Sauce will be thick.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
• Blend in butter cubes with your fingers or food processor until mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Stir in milk and dill with a fork until mixture just comes together.
• Gather dough into a ball, then turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3 times.
• Roll out into a 8 inch square, 1 1/2 inches thick., then cut out 4 circles using a round biscuit cutter. (If you don't have a biscuit cutter, then a glass often works just as well.).
• Sprinkle cod with remaining salt and pepper.
• Bring sauce to a simmer and stir in fish, then divide among 4 10 oz. ramekins.
• Top each ramekin with a biscuit then brush with melted butter.
• Arrange ramekins in a shallow baking pan and bake until sauce is bubbling and biscuits are golden, 12-15 minutes.
