This dish looks impressive but is actually very simple to put together with the help of frozen veg and ready-roll pastry - perfect for tired mums during the Christmas season.
400ml milk
2 cloves of garlic, minced
½ onion, diced
1 bay leaf
1 leek, chopped
200g Birds Eye Field Fresh Country Mix
3 tbsp flour
3 tsp Dijon mustard
1 pack of puff pastry
1 egg
50g Parmesan
(Optional: Button mushrooms)
In a saucepan, heat the milk, garlic, onion and bay leaf. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, soften the chopped leek (and mushrooms if using) in a frying pan over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes. Add the leftover turkey and frozen veg for the last 5 minutes.
Add the flour to the turkey and leek mix and cook for a further 2 minutes. After removing the bay leaf, stir the milk into the mix. Add the mustard and stir constantly until you have a thickened sauce.
Place the mixture in a rectangular baking dish and top with a sheet of puff pastry. Brush the pastry with a beaten egg and sprinkle the Parmesan on top.
Bake for 25-35 minutes and serve with salad.
