Quick post today to introduce the chicken and leek pie

A quick post today to bring to your attention the addition of a recipe I really like: the chicken and leek pie.  The title may seem a lot of work but in the end, can be done quite rapidly as different preparation steps can be done at the same time.

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.
