Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 carrot diced (about 1 cup, medium
  • 3 celery diced (about 1 cup, stalks
  • 1 onion diced (about 1 ½ cups, medium
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup white wine
  • ¼ cup sherry
  • 2 cups chicken stock or turkey stock
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon thyme fresh leaves
  • ½ cup peas defrosted, frozen
  • 2 cups turkey meat shredded or diced, leftover, Thanksgiving
  • 1 puff pastry thawed, but cold, frozen, sheet
  • 1 egg beaten for egg wash, optional
  • sea salt optional, flaky, for sprinkling on top

Notes

  • If omitting the wine and/or sherry, substitute with an equal amount of either stock plus a few splashes of white wine vinegar to balance the richness, or with apple cider, which adds a really nice flavor. 
  • Thaw puff pastry in the refrigerator, and keep it cold until right before using. This makes it easier to work with and ensures it bakes up light and flaky.
  • The egg wash is optional but will make the crust golden brown and crisp on top. 
  • Lightly dust the crust with flaky sea salt, herbs or other seasonings before baking for added flavor and texture. 
  • Always vent the crust with small cuts to let steam escape, which prevents it from overflowing on the sides.
  • Let the pot pie rest at least 5 minutes before serving to let the filling set up.
