  1. Cook the cauliflower in a pan of boiling water for 8 minutes, then drain and mash until smooth. Season well, then stir in 30g of the cheese and half of the herbs and set aside. Preheat the oven to 190°C, fan 170°C, gas mark 5.
  2. Put the milk and fish pie mix in a large pan, bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 4 minutes. Transfer the fish to a plate using a slotted spoon, and reserve the milk.
  3. Melt the spread in the pan over a medium heat and stir in the garlic and mustard. Add the flour and cook for 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the reserved milk, bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season to taste. Add 90g of the cheese, the fish pie mix, the prawns, peas and the remaining herbs. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute, then pour the mixture into a 2.5-litre baking dish and top with the cauliflower mash. Sprinkle over the remaining cheese and bake for 25 minutes, until golden and bubbling. Serve with the broccoli on the side.
