Frozen meals get a bad rap, but Young’s is looking to prove that convenience doesn't have to come at the expense of quality. The new Young’s Gastro Luxury Fish Pie features a high-quality mixture of Atlantic salmon, pollock, smoked pollock, and king prawns with mature cheddar cheese and white wine sauce. The whole thing is finished with a tender mashed potato, and a cheddar and chive breadcrumb topping. As Kevin Sinfield, Marketing Controller at [Sofina Foods Europe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/youngs-gastro) (Young’s Seafood's parent company), explains, ""As consumers look for more elevated yet convenient meals, this dish offers a premium seafood experience that feels like a real treat, without the cost of dining out."
