Make a fresh veloute with 50g of butter, flour, white wine and fish stock.
Season and dust the diced fish with flour, and flash fry in the remaining 25g of butter to seal the fish. Remove the fish and sweat the fennel, then place fish and fennel in a pie dish and sprinkle with peeled prawns and shredded spring onions (keep green tops for garnish).
Add the cream to the veloute (sauce) and pour over the fish. Overlap on top with blanched sliced potatoes and brush with butter. Bake in a moderate oven for 30 minutes or until the top is slightly coloured. Sprinkle with the spring onion tops and whole prawns.
Serve with sliced runner beans which have been boiled and tossed in a little black pepper.
