Instructions
For the Roux
- In a small saucepan, on medium heat, melt the butter and add the flour.
- Slowly add the chicken stock while stirring constantly, till the mixture becomes like a semi-runny paste. Turn off the heat and set aside.
For the Filling
- In a medium saucepan, add olive oil and leeks and cook till softened.
- Stir in the sliced mushrooms, minced garlic, sage, thyme, parsley and salt and stir. Cook till mushrooms are softened.
- Add the pieces of chicken and 1 cup of the chicken stock. Simmer for 5-7 minutes to reduce. There should be a couple of tablespoons of liquid remaining.
- Turn off the heat and add the roux to thicken it, mixing well.
Make the Pie
- Preheat oven to 390℉/200℃. Press down the pastry to line a non-stick baking dish so the pastry come up and lines the sides to reach the rim.
- Cover the pastry with some parchment paper, weighed down with baking beans and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and carefully take out the parchment paper and beans, then bake for a further 5 minutes or till golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before spooning out the filling onto the pastry.
- Cover the filling with another layer of pastry, pressing down on the edges to seal the sides. Brush with milk or egg white.
- Repeat for the 3 other pies. Bake for 20 minutes until the pastry has risen and is golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
