Scaredy Cat
CHICKEN & LEEK PIE
I make it with left over chicken after a roast. I chop leeks and saute off with little bit of butter. While they are softening I make a white sauce but crumble an chicken oxo in to it. I then stir in the chicken and leek. Make pastry and bung in oven.
It really is very nice but one of those made up recipes on the spur of the moment so no exact measurements.
