@emthenutritionist: CHRISTMAS PIE Perfect for that in-between period of Christmas and new years when you don’t know what to do with all those left overs and random kitchen purchases like cooked chestnuts and cranberries. So good it will make you giggle. Serves 4, under 550kcal per portion Around 300g shredded turkey or chicken Cupped handful of Brussels (around 20), roughly shredded 6 fresh sage leaf, finely chopped
2 leeks, sliced
6 rashers of smoked pancetta, diced 1 chicken stock cube 100g cooked chestnuts, roughly chopped 2 tbsp dried cranberries
1 heaped tbsp plain flour
1 tsp english mustard
500-600ml semi-skimmed milk (or any milk) 1 tbsp half fat creme fraiche 
Ready-rolled puff pastry
1 egg Pre heat the oven to 200c fan. In a deep pan, sweat the Brussels and leeks with the sage until they start to turn a little golden and colour. Season with a pinch of salt and add in the diced pancetta and chestnuts. Cook down for another 3-4 minutes. Sprinkle in 1 generous tbsp flour, mix then slowly whisk in 500ml cold semi skimmed milk. Add in the chicken stock, mustard, cranberries and bring to a simmer until thickened. Fold in the cooked turkey, 1 tbsp creme fraiche and leave to cool for a few minutes. Grab your pie dish, tip in the filling, top with pastry and cut around the excess. Pinch the pastry and cut 2 air vents in the middle. Brush with an egg wash and bake for 25-30 minutes until risen and golden. #christmasrecipe #christmas #christmaspie
