Low salt cheese sauce for fish pie anyone ?

[fakeblondie]

Hi I'm after a recipe for low salt cheese type sauce as I have a bag if frozen fish for fish pie but have high blood pressure and really need to start cooking with as low salt as possible .
Any ideas would be most welcome x

I would either just do a plain white sauce and put a bit of cheese on the mashed potato OR make a 'normal' cheese sauce with no added salt and use reduced-salt cheese.

What about Jamie's fish pie recipe? It doesn't use a cheese sauce and you could adapt to use minimal cheese/low salt cheese and chuck in a dash of cream instead.

I sometimes don't make a cheese sauce for fish pie, I put my fish and whatever else I'm adding into a dish and then squirt cheese spread over it. When I put it in the oven the cheese spread melts through it and gives a yummy cheese sauce but I don't know about the salt content of cheese spread.

Do a spicy tomato sauce instead, top with breadcrumbs for a little crunch. You can also add in some cooked new pots to bulk it up.

Or make a fish curry.

Or make a bechamel sauce which has no cheese in it, and add lots of chopped flat leaf parsley to make a green herby sauce.

My point being that instead of making things which are high in salt (cheese) into something low in salt, it's usually easier to cook a different thing which is low salt in the first place.

I make my fish pie with creme fraiche and lots of parsley with some garlic and pepper, i only add in a smidgen of cheese as DH doesn't like cheese sauce really. I think it's from the Jamie O recipe mentioned above, but I can't remember.
