Christmas Leftovers Pot Pie Recipe<\/h2>\n

Serves:<\/strong> 6-8<\/p>\n

Active time: <\/b>30 minutes<\/p>\n

Total time: <\/b>1 hour 30 minutes<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n

320g ready-rolled puff pastry<\/p>\n

1 egg, beaten<\/p>\n

For the filling<\/i><\/p>\n

400-500g cooked turkey meat, torn into bite-size pieces<\/p>\n

400-500g mixed roast vegetables, such as potatoes, peas, carrots, parsnips, cabbage, and sprouts<\/p>\n

200-300g cooked ham, diced<\/p>\n

1 generous handful mixed herbs, such as parsley, thyme, rosemary or tarragon, roughly chopped<\/p>\n

For the sauce<\/i><\/p>\n

45g butter<\/p>\n

2 leeks, washes and roughly chopped<\/p>\n

2 tbsp plain flour<\/p>\n

250ml leftover gravy and 250ml chicken stock or<\/b> 500ml chicken stock<\/p>\n

3 tsp dijon mustard<\/p>\n

200ml pouring cream<\/p>\n

Salt and freshly ground pepper<\/p>\n

Method<\/h2>\n

Step 1:<\/strong> Preheat the oven to 180\u00baC (fan).<\/p>\n

Make the sauce<\/i><\/p>\n

Step 2:<\/strong> Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a medium heat, and add the leeks and a little salt.<\/p>\n

Step 3: <\/strong>Cook, stirring regularly for about 7 minutes until the leeks have softened.<\/p>\n

Step 4: <\/strong>Add the flour and stir for another minute .<\/p>\n

Step 5: <\/strong>Add the stock mixture and mustard a little at a time so your sauce doesn’t go lumpy.\u00a0 Then bring to a simmer, stirring continuously for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.<\/p>\n

Step 6: <\/strong>Remove from the heat, add the pouring cream and season to taste.\u00a0 Then set aside to cool.<\/p>\n

To assemble<\/i><\/p>\n

Step 7: <\/strong>Once the sauce is cooled, combine the filling ingredients in a 25cm pie dish and mix well.\u00a0 Pour over the sauce and stir again to mix through.<\/p>\n

Step 8: <\/strong>Dust your countertop with a little flour and roll out the pastry a little thinner so it’s a bit bigger than the top of the pie dish.<\/p>\n

Step 9: <\/strong>Lightly brush the edge of the pie dish with egg wash and gently lay the pastry over the filing.\u00a0 Trim the overhang with a sharp knife and use a fork to gently press around the edge, securing the pastry to the dish.<\/p>\n

Step 10: <\/strong>If you prefer, roll the off-cuts a little thinner, and use them to decorate the top of the pie.\u00a0 Brush the pie top with egg wash and make several small holes with the tip of a sharp knife for steam to escape.<\/p>\n

Step 11: <\/strong>Place the pie on a baking tray and bake for 35-45 minutes until the pastry is well risen and golden.<\/p>\n
