Sweet potato fish pie - with peanuts? Rank?

Hey all

I've been shopping for dinner (at last!), and I'm making a fish pie tonight with salmon, shrimp, and whitefish, veg, lots of garlic, tomato/cream sauce based, and sweet potato topping. I got a notion to pick up some peanuts at the shops. They'll get eaten anyway, but I bought them with the intention of throwing them in.

I'm not sure. Much as I love peanuts, would they jar with the whole thing? I can't make up my mind. I also got sweetcorn, but I think I'll leave that out.

First world problems..

Sweetcorn is good in fish pie, but I don't know what they'd be like with sweet potato.

Peanuts, I would say, are a definite 'no'.

I imagine it's too late now, but if you blitzed the peanuts and sprinkled them as a topping, it could provide a nice textural contrast. I wouldn't put them in the pie itself though.
