- 1 leek, cleaned thoroughly, white and pale-green parts sliced into half moons
- 1 cup celery, chopped, from 2 ribs

Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Ensure the Liquored Pie Dough has chilled in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. On a lightly floured surface, roll it out about 1/4 inch thick into the shape of your casserole dish. Keep refrigerated until ready to bake.
-
Step 2.
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
-
Step 3.
In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter. Add 1/2 pound chopped Yukon Gold potatoes, 1 large diced sweet onion, 1 sliced leek (white and pale-green parts), 1 cup chopped celery (from 2 ribs), 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Sauté until the celery and leeks begin to soften, 7 to 8 minutes.
-
Step 4.
Add 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, stirring to coat the vegetables, and cook until the flour sticks to the vegetables and you can see the bottom of the pot, about 1 minute.
-
Step 5.
Add 2 1/2 cups fish or seafood stock and 3/4 cup white wine, stirring until the sauce thickens and bubbles, 2 to 3 minutes.
-
Step 6.
Turn the heat to low and add 1/4 cup heavy cream, 2 teaspoons lemon zest, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill, and salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking over low heat until bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 8 ounces flaked smoked salmon, 8 ounces frozen petite peas, and 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
-
Step 7.
Pour the mixture into the casserole dish. Top with the rolled-out pie dough, tucking in the edges and crimping around the sides of the dish. Cut five 1-inch vents in the top of the crust. Brush the dough with the Egg Wash. Set the dish on a baking sheet to catch drips, and bake until the pie is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes.
