Instructions

Preheat your oven to 180c

Cut up your leftover smoked chicken and ham into bitesize chunks.

Finely slice your leeks and onions.

Place the leeks and onion in a frying pan with a splash of olive oil. Gently brown them before adding the chicken and ham chunks, and mushrooms.

Add a large handful of chopped tarragon. Stir and then add 2 heaped tablespoons of flour.

Mix in the flour ensuring that it is absorbed, then slowly add the milk, each time stirring to combine. Continue stirring until you have a thick pie filling. Season with paper and remove from the heat.

Pour the contents of your frying pan into a heat-proof dish and lay your thinly rolled puff pastry on top. Trim the sides and brush the top with an egg yolk.

Place in the oven for 30 minutes or until the pastry has puffed up and it is golden.
