LEFTOVER TURKEY OR CHICKEN PASTIES



Leftover Turkey or Chicken Pasties image

This is a very nice way to use up leftovers from a roast dinner. Use the amounts given in the recipe only as a guide. Chop and change the recipe according to the ingredients you have on hand. If you prefer shortcrust pastry then that is fine too. I often use the leftover gravy instead of the stock, I do water it down somewhat When I have less time I just cut the pastry into squares and make them as triangles.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

7 -8 ounces cooked turkey or 7 ounces chicken, roughly chopped
6 -8 ounces cubed leftover roasted potatoes (or cooked0)
1 cup leftover prepared stuffing or 1 cup chopped sausage
1 cup leftover vegetables (chopped if needed)

  • Mix together the turkey, potatoes, stuffing and vegetables, season to taste with the black pepper.
  • Add the stock to the mixture, it should be moist and not too wet.
  • Unroll the pastry and roll out further so you can cut out 4 large circles, use a side plate as a guide.
  • Place the circles onto a baking sheet, spoon the filling into the middle of each circle.
  • Brush the edges with the beaten egg, then bring them up to the middle and pinch the ends to seal.
  • Brush the pasties with the rest of the egg and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden.
  • NOTE: Vegetables I have used so far with success are carrots, brussels sprouts, peas and cabbage. And I also added grated cheese.

Roll out both sheets of pastry about 1/8 inch thick. Using a 4 inch pastry cutter,cut out about 20 circles. Transfer half the circles to a lightly floured surface,put 1 tablespoon of the filling on top of each,leaving room around the edge to seal. Moisten the outer edge of each circle with water and cover with the top layers. Pull up and seal as tightly as possible. Brush the top of each with the egg wash. Cit a few small slits in the top of each with the tip of a paring knife. Place on greased baking tray. Bake for 20-25 mins or until pasties are puffed and golden brown. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use leftover turkey: Leftover turkey is perfect for this recipe, but you can also use freshly cooked turkey.
  • Cook the turkey thoroughly: Make sure the turkey is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before using it in the pasties.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: You can use any vegetables you like in the pasties, such as carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
  • Season the filling well: Don't be afraid to season the filling generously with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices.
  • Roll the pasties tightly: Make sure to roll the pasties tightly so that the filling doesn't leak out.
  • Bake the pasties until golden brown: Bake the pasties for about 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
