Method
- In a large pan. Heat the butter and oil on a medium heat. Once hot add the leeks and thyme and cook gently for 10-15 minutes, so that they are very soft but not burnt. After a couple of minutes add a generous sprinkle of salt and grind of pepper.
- Sprinkle the flour into the pan and stir around to absorb juices. Then add the apple cider vinegar and let it bubble for a moment or two. Then add the stock, bring to a boil and then add the Rodda’s Clotted Cream.
- Gently simmer until you have a thick sauce.
- Stir through the mustard, tarragon, ham hock and turkey.
- Set aside. This can break made a day ahead.
- When ready to cook the pie. Preheat the oven 200C or 180C fan. Roll out the pastry until you have enough to cover the top of your pie dish plus a little overhang.
- Spoon the filling into your pie dish. There should be about a cm from the top.
- Carefully drape the pastry over the top of the pie. Crimp the edges to the pie dish so that it doesn’t shrink away from the sides whilst baking.
- Score the pastry however you like. You can also pierce a hold in the middle of the pie to let out a little steam.
- Whisk the egg and milk together. Then brush the top of the pastry with a thin even layer.
- Then bake for 40-50 minutes until golden brown.
