  I tried this last night with the left over turkey, it tasted nice but just a little disappointed because it wasn't very creamy, maybe I used too much stock becasue I had to reduce the qualities for 2 servings instead of 4. Would definately do again, only once a year though because of the calories especially after christmas dinner

  I made this last year using left over turkey and will be making it again this year. I agree with the comment above, so the second time I made it I increased the stock and cream slightly and it was much better.

  Succulent, lots of flavour and simple to make. I will certainly be making this again and have already pointed some friends to the recipe. My only problem (not related to this recipe) is trying to get the puff pastry to rise and be airy and crisp .. I've not had much luck with that yet.

  Made this tongiht - very yummy. However, I added plain flour to the onions and mushrooms before I added the stock so that the sauce would be thicker. I also used a teaspoon of dried tarragon as the supermarket had no fresh. The Family LOVED it :)

  Tasty meal, I used creme fraiche instead to lower the fat content. Will make again

  I made this last weekend and it was absolutely delicious, I did like the previous reviewer and used half fat creme fraiche to lower the fat content. I made it as individual pies rather than one large one, and froze two of them for another time. Will definitely make this again as the flavours were lovely.

  I didn't have any peas, so I chopped up a carrot, and the local supermarket was out of pastry, so I half boiled some New Potatoes, sliced them and put them on top. Ended up mixing them in once it got to the table, mind!

  Delicious. As above I substituted half fat creme fraiche & as daughter doesn't like mushrooms didn't put any in but added lardons instead. Even fussy six year old loved it.

  This was very tasty comfort food on a cold winters day and a great way to use up left over turkey (mine was in the freezer from Christmas) - however I will leave the frozen peas out next time as they just became overcooked (reminded me of tinned peas).

  Quick and easy, tasty pie. Agree With the other comments about creaminess, but it didn't spoil it. I used dried tarragon as none fresh available and broad beans as other half doesn't like peas. Will make again

  Made for two really easy, used chicken did not have mushrooms so used carrots and leeks, also used dried tarragon, had filo pastry that needed using up and that was lovely too, only used 120ml cream and 200ml veg stock perfect amount. Will make again and next time with the mushrooms!
