Peel and dice Yukon potatoes.

Add salt to the pot of water and bring it to a boil with the potatoes.

Boil the potatoes for about 15 minutes until fork tender.

Use a potato ricer to mash the potatoes while they are still hot.

Add unsalted butter to the mashed potatoes and mix until melted.

Add salt, garlic paste, hot heavy cream, and a little cheese to the mashed potatoes and mix well.

Incorporate one egg yolk into the potato mixture to bind it together.

Mince one shallot and one leek, using most of the white part and a little green part.

Add butter to a pan and melt it.

Add the minced shallots to the pan and sweat for about 1-2 minutes.

Add the minced leeks to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes.

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.

Pour in a whole box of heavy cream and mix.

Add frozen peas, garlic powder, onion powder, and dill to the mixture.

Let the filling cook for a few minutes until the liquid has mostly evaporated and the fish is cooked through.

Add salmon and basa fillets to the filling and mix until the fish breaks apart and is cooked.

Assemble the pie by layering mashed potatoes at the bottom, then the fish filling, another layer of mashed potatoes, and top with cheese.

Bake at 350°F for about an hour or until the top is bubbly and golden brown.
