Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1/2 pound medium carrots (about 4), halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
- 1/2 pound medium parsnips (about 4), halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
- 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1 1/2 pounds waxy potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 12 ounces skinless tilapia fillets (about 3), cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp (about 18), tails removed
- 1/2 cup coarse fresh bread crumbs
Directions
- Heat oven to 375° F. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, parsnips, celery, and ½ teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Sprinkle with the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute (do not let darken). Add the wine and simmer until nearly evaporated.
- Add the cream, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, stir in the parsley, and transfer to an 8-inch square baking dish.
- Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a medium saucepan and add enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil and add 1 teaspoon salt. Reduce heat and simmer until tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Reserve ¾ cup of the cooking water, drain the potatoes, and return them to the pot. Add ¼ cup of the remaining oil, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and ¼ cup of the reserved cooking water and mash (adding more cooking water, if necessary) until smooth.
- Nestle the fish and shrimp in the vegetable mixture and top with the potato mixture.
- In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs and the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and sprinkle over the potatoes. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

Quick Tip

Dry vermouth is a tasty substitute for white wine in many recipes. Try it the next time you want to avoid opening a bottle
of white wine for cooking. (An opened bottle of vermouth will last for months in the refrigerator.)

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
