  we made this using turkey left over from chritmas day, it worked well with the cheesy mash topping instead of the pastry too. really nice and tasty, and fairly easy to do.

  Absolutely delicious recipe. I used 4 large-ish chicken breasts and there was still lots of filling. Would definitely recommend.

  I also used 4 large chicken breasts and in fact had enough filling for two large pies, so have frozen half along with 250g of the pastry as only needed 250g for one pie. A really tasty, hearty pie - will definitely make again. I like Mike & Ellie's idea of using cheesy mash as an alternative.

  made this for a mid week tea, bit time consuming but well worth the effort.. had lots of filling left over so froze ready to make another pie at a later date, possibly with a mash potato topping instead

  I found the instructions difficult to understand in places, but after a few mistakes and ringing people up for help I had made it and it was beautiful!

  Made it for dinner last night, a great success. The sauce was the best I have tasted, chicken stock really made a difference. Had loads leftover, so next time i will freeze half.

  Fantastic recipe. Far too much filling but froze really well and tasted great the following week! Now a firm favourite in our house.
