Method

Grease three 10 cm in diameter ramekin dishes with butter. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Once the pastry is defrosted, cut out 3 circles slightly larger than the diameter of the ramekin dishes. Each pot pie recipe serves/makes 3 small pot pies.

Cheesy vegetable pot pies:

Add the butternut and baby marrow to a pot of salted water and cook for 10 minutes. Add the cauliflower and broccoli and cook for a further 5 minutes until just soft. Drain well.
Add the sauce, cheese and corn flour and gently mix through.
Add the chives and season to taste.

Chicken & mushroom pot pies:

Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion and garlic until soft.
Add the chicken and brown. Shred the chicken and add the sauce and corn flour.
Mix well, season to taste and add the tarragon.

Beef & pepper pot pies:

Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion and garlic until soft.
Add the mince and brown. Add the tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce and mix through.
Add the sauce and corn flour and mix well. Season to taste and add the parsley.

To finish:

Spoon into the prepared ramekin dishes and spread out evenly. Place the pastry rounds on top and crimp to seal.
Make a small hole in center of the pastry to allow steam to escape. Brush with milk and egg wash.

For oven baking: Bake for 35 – 40 minutes or until golden and puffed.

For Air Fryer cooking: Bake for 15 minutes at 180°C or until golden and puffed.

HINTS & TIPS: Make a family-sized pie by doubling up on the filling ingredients and using a 20 cm in diameter pie dish with 400 g puff pastry.
