Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Put the crème fraîche and mustard in a pan and heat gently. Add the spinach, and stir until it wilts, then stir in the peas and mackerel. Tip into a heatproof dish and top with the mash. Rough up the surface, then dot with butter and bake for 10 minutes until golden and bubbling. Slide under a medium grill for a few minutes extra to get a crispier golden top.
