6 tablespoons cold water (about)
milk, for brushing on top
250 ml chicken stock (9 fl. oz)

  • Meanwhile, to make filling, bring the stock to a boil in a saucepan, reduce heat and add the chicken and potatoes and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, cool for 25 minutes, then drain off the liquid and transfer the chicken and potatoes to a bowl.
  • Stir in the remaining ingredients.
  • Preheat oven to 375*F.
  • Grease a 9 inch pie tin.
  • Remove the dough from the fridge and on a floured work surface, roll out half the pastry to a thickness of 1/4 inch and use to line the tin.
  • Spoon in the filling.
  • Roll out the remaining pastry and use to make a lid.
  • Brush the edge of the bottom crust with water and cover with the lid, trimming the edges.
  • Cut two slits in the top to vent.

  • Brush with milk and bake for 45 minutes.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pie turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra herbs and spices next time.

This recipe was a disaster! The crust was too thick and the filling was bland. I won't be making this again.
