Add enough milk to reserved liquid to make 2 cups. Melt Crisco in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook until tender, stirring occasionally. Blend in flour, salt, and pepper; cook until bubbly. Remove from heat. Gradually stir in liquid. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sauce boils and thickens. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Stir in frozen vegetables and fish. Set aside. Preheat oven to 425ºF. For Pastry, place Crisco mix in a bowl. Add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing with a fork until dry ingredients are moistened and dough can be gathered into a ball.

Roll remaining pastry into a circle the diameter of the casserole. Cut slits for steam to escape. Place over filling. Seal edges and flute.
