Instructions
Make the mashed potato.Preheat the oven to 200c.Peel and dice the onion. Chop the celery and leek into cm pieces. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Finely chop the dill.
Remove the skin and bones from the fish and chop it into 2cm cubes. Peel the prawns.In a saucepan, heat the butter and, when it has melted, put in the onion, celery, leek and garlic. Cook it over a medium heat for 15 minutes until the onion is very soft.
Add the flour to the pan, thoroughly mix it in, then add the white wine and stir that in until the flour and wine have combined.
Pour in 150ml of the stock and stir that in until it has become combined, then add another 150ml of the stock and stir that to combine. Finally, add the remaining stock and stir it in. Then bring the mixture up to the boil, turn down the heat slightly and simmer it until it has reduced by half (about 5-10 minutes).
Add the fish, but not the prawns, turn the heat down to medium and gently cook it for 5 minutes.
Add the cream and the dill, season it with salt & pepper, gently stir it (so as not to break up the fish) and then carefully tip the contents of the pan into an oven proof dish. Then put in the prawns.Cover the mixture with the mashed potato by first putting spoonfuls around the edge of the dish and then filling in the middle. Smooth the surface of the mashed potato with a knife and then lightly drag a fork across to form a ridged pattern.
Put the dish on to a baking tray and into the oven for 20 minutes. If the top is not browned enough by this time, put the dish under a hot grill for 5 minutes (or until the top is brown enough).
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish works really well with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. You could try Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.

Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve
An intense golden color with hints of ocher, the wine has a nose of ripe fruit, quince. In the mouth the attack is both supple and full, with notes of honey and spices. The final perfectly balances sugar and acidity.Pair this wine alongside pan-fried foie gras, grilled or roasted white meats (pork, veal), rabbit, poultry in cream sauce, smoked fish, mushroom dishes such as risotto.
