Fish Pie

Very simple recipe but with a very good result. I used the dough from one site, the assembly method from another, both quite successful. You can use any favorite fish fillet, it is important to be boneless - you can use the store-bought puff pastry.

Ingredients
Fresh fish
4 pieces
any fish fillet you like, about 1 kg
White onion

2 large or 4 small pieces
Sunflower oil
50 ml

Sugar
1 tsp
Butter
4 tbsp
Salt
0.25 tsp
White flour

Bakers yeast
