Turkey Pie With Shortcrust Pastry

I love using leftovers and Christmas is a time when we all tend to buy too much food. Plus you have to find ways to use up all the roast meats, in my case roast turkey, but you can add ham too!

Now I would like to give some tips on how to spend sensibly on food during the holiday season. I’m afraid that if I did, everyone who knows me would be laughed at.

I always do a roast for Christmas, this year we have turkey. I also always cook a ham as I like to have leftovers for days.

I often use leftover ham to make a leftover ham and turkey pie. Ham is also useful in salads, and with cheese and pickles between Christmas and New Year.

Also, I always have vegetables left over from Christmas Day. Despite the number of servings of vegetables in my pans, I always think there is never enough, so I add a little more.

Needless to say, I always have plenty of leftovers (with the notable exception of roast potatoes which are always devoured in our house).

I love to serve a leftover turkey pie on Boxing Day and have had many compliments from guests over the years. It’s simple, delicious and the perfect way to use up leftovers.

Grease the edges of the pie plate, crack the pastry lid a few times to let any steam escape and fold the pie in, being careful not to go all the way through the dough!

I stuffed my pie with turkey because that’s what I cook. I also like to mix the leftover sauce with some crème fraîche to make the pie sauce.

However, you can also use leftover chicken and ham in this pie. Or get one of the 3 meats on your own!

I like to add a freshly cooked leek when making the sauce base because I really think it lifts the dish.

However, if you don’t have a lot of vegetables, you can easily add fresh vegetables along with the leeks. Simply cook the veggies for 10 minutes before adding them to the pie mix!

Avoid adding something like a braised red cabbage though, as the vinegar will split the sauce. Instead, heat up this veggie dish and serve it on the side!

I use cream fresh in this recipe because I think it adds a nice, tangy note to the sweet sauce. The crème fraîche adds a real richness to the sauce.

However, you can add double, single or heavy cream instead. If a creamy element is not to your liking, leave it out.

I love leftover turkey pie with puff pastry. However, you will notice that this recipe has no instructions for making the dough, instead I use a store-bought ready-made puff pastry roll.

I always have pastry rolls in the fridge at Christmas time, both the puff and the cake, for this very reason.

If you want to make your own pastry with all means go for it. However, on Boxing Day I have so many other things I’d rather be doing, so shop bought pastry for the leftover puff pastry turkey pie!

I like to serve this with any other leftovers, like sausage meat stuffing; Oatmeal stuffing and pigs in blankets, assuming there are no left!

Chicken Pot Pie

I always make a fresh batch of fries, I’m never out of fries in the house!

Yes, you can make this leftover turkey pie recipe the day before by preparing the pie filling and scooping it onto the plate. Then all you have to do is roll it over the puff pastry before baking it the next day.

However, when I’ve cooked, eaten and cleaned up after Christmas lunch, the last thing on my mind is preparing the food for the next day.

When using leftover vegetables, avoid adding things like sauerkraut, as the vinegar will sour the pie and turn everything a rather unappetizing pink color. Instead, reheat the cabbage and serve on the side.

Easy Leftover Turkey And Vegetable Pie

Method Preheat the oven to 180C / 160C fan / gas 5. Unroll the cake and puff pastry, leaving the pastry on the baking sheets provided. Peel and cut the potatoes into approximately 2 cm cubes. Cook until half done but still firm. Make sure you don’t overcook or it will fall apart. Lightly butter a 20cm x 30cm pie tin and line the bottom and sides with a generous layer of shortcrust pastry. Bake blind in the oven for 10 minutes. Blind baking involves lining an unbaked baking tray with baking parchment (paper) and then filling it with wheat. These wheats are usually referred to as baking beans. They are important because they help keep the dough in shape as it cooks. Once ready, set aside to cool. In a large non-stick frying pan, heat the oil, then fry the bacon. Once browned, remove the bacon from the pan and set aside. Reduce the heat, add the vegetables to the pan and cook until tender. If you are using frozen vegetables, thaw them first in the microwave. Skip this step altogether for pre-cooked leftover vegetables. Make the roux (see instructions below). Add the turkey and bacon to the vegetables in the pan and stir in the roux to make the stuffing. Spread the potatoes in a single layer in the pie pan and then spoon the filling on top. Roll out the puff pastry for the pie topping. Brush the edges of the pie crust with the beaten egg, then cover with puff pastry, taking care to tuck the edges. Brush the top of the remaining turkey pie with the beaten egg and make a few slits with a sharp knife to let the steam escape. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the pastry is risen and golden. Allow to cool slightly before serving. To make the roux: A roux (pronounced “rou”) is the name given to the semi-mixture of butter and plain flour that thickens and forms the base of various sauces. It consists of equal amounts of butter and plain flour. Melt the fat, mix in the flour over low heat. The hot liquid is then gradually mixed into the pulp to create a silky sauce that requires a few more minutes of cooking before serving or using. In two pans, heat chicken broth and milk separately (you can microwave in separate dishes). Do not combine chicken soup with milk. In a small saucepan, gently melt the butter over low heat. Add the flour and mix with the melted butter using a whisk. Cook for at least 2 minutes to “cook” the raw flour. Add the warm chicken stock to the flour mixture in batches, making sure that each batch is well mixed before the next. Now repeat the process adding the warm milk in batches, again making sure that each batch is well mixed. Continue to add the milk in batches and whisk to ensure a smooth, lump-free sauce with the consistency of double cream. You may not need all the milk.
