Note

Ensure the salmon is well-drained and any large bones are removed before adding to the sauce to avoid a watery pie.

For a richer topping, stir a tablespoon of cream cheese or sour cream into the mashed potatoes before spreading.

Watch the pie closely under the broiler to prevent the potatoes from burning; timing may vary based on your oven's broil intensity.

This pie can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the cooking time if baking from cold.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
