Michelle's Freefrom Smoked Haddock Pie

Corn, egg, gluten, lactose, milk, nut, peanut, sesame, soya & wheat free

A very simple and delicious pie– but do try to make sure that you get genuine smoked haddock, not the dyed-orange variety. You should be able to get it from a good fishmonger or a decent supermarket fish counter.
You can get seaweeds in most healthfood stores and some delis - or you can buy them on line - just Google 'sea vegetables'. I buy mine from SeaVeg in County Donegal and when they arrive, the sea all but rushes out of the bag at you!
