Two blog posts in one day?! This recipe was soooo delicious that I absolutely had to blog about it right away. I was just going to comment on Jamie Oliver's website but then I started reading the 200+ comments.... In the future I will use the comments to verify how good an online recipe is. I didn't need to add my "holy crap this was awesome", it was already well said.
So here's the basic recipe. http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/turkey-recipes/turkey-sweet-leek-pie
And here's what I did differently.
I used 2 1/2 Chicken breasts, diced up and tossed in to cook with the leeks.
I added Summer Savoury since it just screams comfort, roast poultry dinner to me
I halved the liquid (2 c) since I don't have a decent sieve to drain it with and didn't really want the extra work.
Right before I put the leek/chicken in the baking dish I added in 6 small grated carrots. I used rainbow carrots. The purple ones turned the mixed dark and the meat a bit pink which was just interesting really.
I just used the plain puffed pastry, leaving out the chestnuts and sage.
No way will this serve 6. It was so good I went back for a second half portion. And I NEVER go back for seconds. I might get 4 servings. You have got to try this one. Seriously. It's unbelievable. I'm not kidding. Really.
