Last Boxing day we made a huge earthquake of a decision to NOT having the annual Turkey curry on Boxing day, and decided on having a Turkey and Feta pie, which was actually fanflipping tastic !
Feta can be picked up for under a pound, and I also added an aubergine to bulk it out and add a bit of goodness. I also used some ready made pastry, which was fab as it was under 拢1 and I made two pies out of it !
Push the boat out and have it with some homemade chips and you have a corker of a meal, and for pennies may I add !. The pie didn’t take long to put together and it is compulsory to finish of the last of the mulled wine, while you are making it !
You will need….
A nice sized portion of cooked turkey diced
1 aubergine diced
1 onion diced
2 peppers dice
Handful of chopped dill
Half a slab of feta cheese.
Tin of tomatoes
1tsp salt
1tsp pepper
1tsp pepper
1tsp sugar
1tsp pepper
2 chicken or veg stock cubes
I beaten egg
Fry the onions in olive oil until soft, then add aubergine and cook for about 3 minutes.
Add the tomatoes , peppers and stock cubes and simmer for around 3 minutes.
Add the spices, turkey, dill and feta. Give it a good stir, the cheese will melt into the mixture, and let it simmer while you prepare the pastry.
Move the mixture into a pie dish and let it cool for five minutes.
Cover with the pastry, seal the edges and poke some holes in the top.
Brush with the beaten egg and聽I used some聽decorated with some caraway seeds to decorate the pie.
Pop it in a medium setting on a preheated oven for around 20 mins,,,but keep an eye on your pastry.
This is fab served with some rocket glazed in a balsamic dressing and real, homemade Fat chips !
