This recipe was an “on the spot” inspiration. I had not researched anything. It started with a friend mentioning she had a chicken and leek pie in the oven. I was intrigued and gave it a go!
Other pies I have done (no photos were taken, unfortunately) this year are two of the Bourke Street Bakery pies. I have done them a few times and very successfully. The only differences there were that I made a family version of them (instead of the individual pies) and blind-baked the pie casing a little (as for a quiche). The pies were the humble beef pie and the spinach ricotta pie.
