    Hi thegirlintheattic,

    This is how I make a pie from leftover pork:

    Left over pork chopped
    Half an onion
    4 mushrooms
    1 small potato
    any leftover veg and gravy or 1/2 pork stock cube and whatever veg you have.
    Black pepper
    Bay leaf
    Frozen (shop bought) puff pastry


    Fry the chopped onion, mushrooms in a little oil, then add the chopped potato and pork. Then throw in any leftover veg and gravy a bay leaf and black pepper and simmer until the meat is tender and the veg cooked. When you’re ready to make the pie, remove the bay leaf and thicken the juices with a teaspoon of corn flour mixed in cold water.

    Roll out the pastry; add filling, brush the pastry with some milk or beaten egg and decorate if you have time. Pop into the oven at 200 degrees until the pastry is risen and golden.

    Alternatively if you don't have pastry you can top the pie with mashed potato and pop into the oven until the top begins to colour slightly.

    I'll add your thread to it later to keep the suggestions together.

    I had the same last week, and I sliced it up and reheated it in the oven in gravy with some fried off leek and onion.

    That's exactly what I do but sometimes I top it with mash rather than pastry.
    Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.
  • Thanks all! Think it will be pie with mash on top tomorrow then.

    Homemade sweet and sour sauce every time with pork leftovers here!
  • Sweet & sour pork? Get a cheap tin of sauce (Sainsbury's value one is tasty), cube the pork and warm through in the sauce. Even better dip the pork cubes in batter and deep fry until golden brown, serve with the sauce drizzled over the top on a bed of rice.
