To make the pastry:
1.
Rub 300 g plain flour with 150 g cold cubed unsalted butter until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Stir in 1 egg yolk and bring it together with 3–4 tbsp of cold water until it forms a dough.
400 g Plain flour
200 g Unsalted butter
1 Egg yolk
3-4 tbsp Cold water
To prepare the filling:
1.
Lay your chicken legs on a tray, season with salt and pepper and roast at 200°C for around 35–40 minutes. Save the juices from the tray.
1.5 kg Chicken legs
Salt
Black pepper
2.
Strip the meat while still warm and roughly tear into bite-sized chunks, discarding bones.
3.
While the chicken cooks, fry diced bacon in a little oil until just crisp, then add sliced onions and leeks and soften gently. Add sliced mushrooms and cook off their moisture, then stir in minced garlic.
150 g Bacon
1 large Onion
1 Leek
250-300 g Mushrooms
2-3 Garlic cloves
4.
Scatter in a spoonful or two of flour and stir to make a roux around the vegetables. Splash in white wine and stir until thickened and smooth, then loosen gradually with a little chicken stock and roasting juices.
1-2 tbsp Plain flour
150 ml Dry white wine
100-150 ml Chicken stock
5.
Stir through both wholegrain and Dijon mustard to taste, then add the shredded chicken and chopped flat-leaf parsley. Taste for seasoning and let the filling cool completely.
1 heaped tsp Wholegrain mustard
1 heaped tsp Dijon mustard
1 small bunch Flat-leaf parsley
To assemble and bake the pie:
1.
Roll out 2/3rds of the pastry and line your pie dish, letting it overhang slightly. Pile in the cold filling, then roll out the second disc and lay it over the top.
2.
Trim and crimp the edges together, cut a small steam hole, and brush all over with beaten egg.
1 Egg
3.
Bake at 180°C until deep golden and crisp (around 35–40 minutes). Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing so the filling settles.

Hi Jack! This pie was absolutely delicious, and it’s the first time I managed to roll out shortcrust pastry without it sticking to the rolling pin (just wow!) I used to cook your recipes from the Herd Market Instagram/website, and I was wondering if you could repost the fish cake recipe here as well. I can’t seem to find it anywhere now. Best, Alexandra
