  • Cook potatoes, with skins on, in a pan of boiling salted water for 10 mins.
  • Drain, rinse with cold water and transfer to a plate to cool. Meanwhile, melt 50g (2oz) of the butter in a large saucepan and add the flour.
  • Cook over a gentle heat for a min or two, then take off the heat and gradually whisk in the milk and creme fraiche.
  • Season with salt and pepper, bring to a simmer and cook for 3 mins.
  • Preheat oven to 220C. Melt remaining butter in a pan with the lemon zest and capers. While the butter melts, peel and coarsely grate the potatoes into long strips into a bowl.
  • Pour over the butter and season with salt and pepper. Use 2 forks to toss the mixture together.
  • Add fish, prawns, leeks, mustard and dill to the sauce and stir. Put the mixture into the dish and scatter the potato over the top - don't pack it down too much.
  • Transfer to a baking tray and bake for 30-45 mins, or until the top is crisp and golden.
