Line a 9-inch pie plate with pastry. Heat butter in frying pan and saute onion until soft but not browned. Add potatoes, fish, salt, pepper, milk and cream; mix gently so as not to break up the pieces of fish. Arrange mixture evenly in the pastry shell. Gently stir in water; it should come halfway up the fish mixture. Cover with top crust, trim, crimping edge to seal. Cut a small hole in the centre. Brush pastry with the beaten egg and milk.

Bake in a preheated 375 deg F oven to 45 to 50 minutes or until crust is browned.
