Description

Turkey Pot Pie. From Your Daily Hit.

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups cooked turkey, diced
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1/3 cup flour
2 cups (480ml) turkey or chicken broth
1/2 cup (120ml) milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 cup frozen peas
1 pie crust

Instructions

Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cook onion, carrot, and celery in butter until soft. Stir in flour, then broth, milk, salt, and thyme. Simmer until thick.
Stir in turkey and peas. Pour into a pie dish.
Cover with the crust, cut vents, and bake 30 to 35 minutes, until the crust is brown.

Notes

The gravy has to be thick before it goes in the dish. A thin filling boils over and leaves a hollow pie.

Turkey

Leftover roast turkey. Chicken works if that is what you have, and then it is a different pie.

Crust

One on top. A bottom crust steams.

Peas

Frozen, added off the heat so they stay green.

Vent

Two slits, or the steam lifts the crust off.

A different lid. This one is pastry.
