Creamy Turkey & Boursin Zero Waste Pie Recipe by : Boursin / Foodcycle Campaign MasterChef 2018 Winner Kenny Tutt www . boursin . co . uk / foodcycle-campaign
Nothing screams comfort like a big golden pie . This is a really versatile affair , and you can pretty much use up all your Christmas Day leftovers . Even adding a spoonful of cranberry sauce isn ' t off limits . The creaminess of the Boursin goes so well with the turkey , and do make sure to use brown meat as well for extra flavour .
Serves : 4 Ingredients :
• 500g pre-made puff pastry
• 600-700g cooked white or dark turkey meat , chopped
• 2-3 rashers of bacon , sliced
• 1 small white onion , chopped
• Mix of leftover cooked vegetables , chopped
• Any leftover stuffing ( optional )
• 150g Garlic & Herb Boursin
• 100ml double cream
• 2 tbsp creme fraiche
• Few sprigs of fresh thyme
• 1 egg , beaten
• Small splash of oil
Method :
1 . Preheat your oven to 180 ° C fan / 200 ° C non fan / gas mark 4 .
2 . Start by making your pie filling . Heat a splash of oil in a large pan and add the bacon lardons , chopped onion and thyme , cook over a medium heat for a few minutes . Add the turkey meat , mixed leftover vegetables and if you have some , the leftover stuffing . If you have any pigs in blankets , pop those in too .
3 . In a separate saucepan over a medium heat mix the Boursin , cream and creme fraiche and mix to a creamy consistency . Pour this over your turkey mix and stir through well .
4 . Get a large deep pie dish . Dust a clean surface with some flour and roll your pastry out so it ’ s just bigger than the size of your dish . Generously spoon the turkey mixture into the pie dish . Carefully place the puff pastry sheet on top of your pie mix and crimp the edges with a fork .
5 . Brush the pastry with the egg mix and , using a knife , make a hole in the centre of the pie to allow the steam to escape for a nice crisp top . Pop the pie in the preheated oven and bake for around 40 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden .
6 . When the pie is ready , serve with a nice generous splash of any leftover gravy and some green vegetables or carrots for a delicious no waste meal .
