Ingredients


(Pie Filling)

  • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil

  • 2 Cloves of Garlic, Sliced

  • 150g Leek (approx 1.5 Leeks), Sliced

  • 200g White Button Mushrooms, Sliced

  • 200g Brown Shimeiji Mushrooms, Sliced

  • 1/2 Tsp Dried Italian Parsley

  • 1/2 Tsp Italian Seasoning or Mixed Herbs

  • 250ml Chicken Stock

  • Pinch of Salt

  • Pinch of Ground Black Pepper

  • 200g Puff Pastry

  • 1 Egg

(Roux)

  • 30g Butter (approx 30g)

  • 2 Tbsp Plain Flour

  • 150ml Milk

Directions


(Roux)

  1. In a small heated saucepan, add in butter and stir until it melts. Stir in Flour until it starts to sizzle.

  2. Gradually add in Milk and stir until a smooth paste is formed. Set aside.

(Pie Filling)

  1. In a large heated frying pan, add in Olive Oil and sliced garlic and stir-fry till fragrant.

  2. Add in sliced leek and stir fry for 2 minutes. Then, add in both mushrooms and continue to fry till they turn soft (approx 5 minutes).

  3. Add in Herbs, Chicken Stock, Salt, Pepper and stir well. Then, add in the Roux and continue stirring till the mixture starts to thicken.

  4. Transfer the filling to a baking pan and let it cool completely.

(Assembling)

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C.

  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a thin sheet.

  3. Place the puff pastry sheet over the baking pan containing the mushroom and brush the top of the pastry with egg wash.

  4. Create 3 slits across the pastry to allow the steam to escape and bake for 13 - 15 minutes or until the puff is golden brown and flaky. (Note: If the top of the pastry starts to brown too quickly, loosely place a sheet of aluminium foil over it and continue to let it bake)

Enjoy!
