Henry has already sampled dishes that didn’t reach my palette until I was well into my twenties. One such dish his Granny G enjoys making for him is fish pie. After visiting the UK earlier this month and discovering ready-made fish pie in the baby food aisle, Henry’s Granny found a recipe for a pint-sized portion online at netmums.com–“mom” spelled with a “u” just so you know it’s British in case that they’re putting fish in a pie didn’t tip you off. The little guy loves the stuff! which isn’t terribly surprising given the fact that his father does, too (the grown-up version that is). So, go on, below is the recipe for Granny’s Fish Pie. Make it tonight for a small person whom you love.
Granny’s Fish Pie
200ml of whole milk
1 potato, peeled and diced
1 carrot, peeled and diced
1 prepared cod fillet
½ a cup of peas
generous pinch of parsley
Place the cod, potatoes, carrot and parsley in a saucepan. Pour over the milk, cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes. Add the peas and cook for an extra 5 minutes. Puree or mash to the desired consistency.

*Allow me to apologize for three things in the video above: (1) starting off by speaking in a super high falsetto [wow!], (2) appearing to jerk Henry up by his arm–what you couldn’t see is that I also had a hand on his crouch to push him up, and (3) he now has a new high chair which he can’t slide out of.
