Matzo Topped Turkey Pie
Our first night Passover dinner always includes turkey. My grandmother served turkey on Passover, my Mom did too and so I follow our family tradition.
Also, because we are a family where some of us eat dark meat and some eat white, I roast a whole turkey (instructions here).
I change the seasonings and basting fluids from time to time. Sometimes I flavor the bird with Balsamic vinegar-ginger-pineapple and sometimes with sweet white wine and thyme, sometimes a simple sprinkle of salt, pepper, garlic and parika and a cup or two of orange juice.
My daughter Gillian is our family carver. She is so adept at carving turkey that in another century she would have had a job at some royal household or other.
There is always leftover turkey.
That means we have turkey pot pie at some point during the holiday.
Here’s my recipe for Passover Turkey Pie. Matzo crust of course!

MATZO TOPPED TURKEY POT PIE
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced
4 carrots, peeled and sliced 1/2-inch thick
2 medium all-purpose potatoes, peeled and cut into bite size chunks
4 cups chopped cooked turkey
1-1/2 to 2 cups leftover chopped cooked vegetables
2-1/2 tablespoons potato starch
3 cups stock
matzo
1 large egg
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes. Add the carrots and potatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the turkey and vegetables and stir to distribute the ingredients evenly. Sprinkle the potato starch on top and mix it into the ingredients. Pour in the stock and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly. Spoon the ingredients into a casserole dish. Depending on the size of the casserole, soak one or two sheets of matzo in cool water briefly to soften the pieces. Press out extra liquid with paper towels. Place the matzo on top of the ingredients. Brush with beaten egg. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until crispy on top.
Makes 4-6 servings

How To Make A (Weeknight) Turkey Pie
One does not simply make a turkey pie. Wait, no. That’s Mordor. One does not simply walk into Mordor. A turkey pie is entirely different. Before we get too deep into the creation of this sumptuous savory meat pie, let me make one thing as clear as humanly possible: this is not going to be a recipe. If anything, this is probably a cautionary tale more than a set of instructions. There will be no…

Delicious Roast Turkey Pie.
Serves 4-6
Prep Time; 15 Mins
Total Cook Time; 1hr 15 Mins
Ingredients;
3 Rashers dry aged smoked streaky bacon, chopped
½ Bunch fresh thyme, leaves picked & washed.
1 Sprig fresh sage, leaves washed & chopped.
Large knob of salted butter.
2 Large leeks, washed and sliced.
1 Onion, diced
600g Leftover turkey meat, torn into large chunks.
2 ½ Tbsps plain flour.
2 Pints turkey, chicken or vegetable stock.
2 Tbsps crème fraiche.
Left over chestnut & cranberry stuffing (find recipe here) **
320g Ready rolled puff pastry
1 Egg, beaten
** If you do not have leftover stuffing, simply add 50g roasted chestnuts. Peeled and quartered.
Method;
Preheat oven to 190°C.
Melt the butter over a medium heat in a large pan and fry the bacon, onion and thyme leaves and cook for two minutes.
Turn the heat down a little. Add the leeks and fry gently for 25 minutes, stirring regularly.
Once your leeks are soft add the turkey meat and leftover stuffing or chestnuts.
Add the flour and stir well.
Add stock, stir well then add the crème fraiche.
Bring to the boil, add a pinch of sea salt & black pepper to season to taste. Remove from the heat.
Place a sieve over a large pan and pour the turkey mixture into the sieve, drain the gravy into the pan. Once drained, set the gravy aside for later and add the turkey mixture to a large, deep sided pie dish.
Flatten the pre-rolled puff pastry onto the work surface.
Pop on the pastry lid, trim away any excess with a sharp knife allowing a slight overhang that you can tuck around the edge of the dish. Crimp the edges together with your finger to seal well. Make 3-4 small cuts on the lid to allow the steam to escape during cooking.
Brush the pie top with the beaten egg.
Place the pie in the oven and cook for about 35 to 40 minutes or until the pastry is puffed up and golden brown.
Re-heat the gravy before serving.

Author Tips;
Why not try adding left over pigs in blankets to the pie. There are never any leftovers of these in our house but I’m sure they’d taste great sliced into the pie.
Brussel sprout lovers, diced brussels sprouts can be added for extra flavour too.
Suddenly everything you eat is Christmas leftovers and everything is right with the world
