Ingredients

Available from British Corner Shop

To be Sourced Locally

  • 3 generous slices of cold roast Turkey
  • 100g of Sausage Meat
  • 100g of New Potatoes, cooked, cooled and sliced
  • 1/2 a packet of ready-made Puff Pastry
  • 1 Egg, beaten

Method

Heat the oven to 175°C.

Roll the pastry into a 30 x 40cm rectangle.

Make a series of cuts about 1cm apart along both the 40cm long sides to create a fringed edge, leaving a 20cm central area.

Lay the turkey on the pastry, followed by the sausage meat and then the stuffing.

Then add a layer of potato, a layer of chestnut, a layer of cranberry sauce and finally the peas mixed in with the chicken soup.

Season to taste and wrap the pastry fringe in a criss-cross form before glazing with beaten egg.

Cook for around 40 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Serve with some Bisto gravy and fresh vegetables.
