I love those recipies. Even if I won't really remake it like that (I'd change for a meat substitute or just use many more vegetables) but where I'm from, savory pies are very much not a thing so I don't get any in stores or anywhere else. I for one am a big fan of schottish dishes so these videos give me a chance to see how it's supposed to be. Because it's (IMO) much easier to cook by a video recipe than a written one, especially if the dishes are foreign to oneself. So yeah thank you
Pro tip: if you make your own shortcrust pastry, when you add the pie weights fill it *to the rim* to prevent the crust from shrinking. Even filling it only halfway may still result in a shrunken crust with short sides. Thanks for the pot pie recipe!
If you do make your own pastry make it a lot bigger than you need and DO NOT press it into the sides, that is what causes the shrinkage, you can make sure it is into the sides of the pan , but don't stretch it, if you stretch it to fit , it'll shrink.

Well it is 9am in Canada, going to be 40C but I am making this pie as I have chicken, mushrooms and lots of fresh tarragon. Hoping my outdoor oven will bake this well. May be an interesting experiment! Thanks
That’s what I thought too! I’d love to make this mouthwatering recipe, 🌸😋we love it but these days are scorching 🥵 hot (to be precise Saharan heat wave is coming with 40+ C!) in south Spain, I don’t want to make the house hotter by turning the oven on. Anyway, I’ll keep the recipe for later when it gets cooler.
Beautiful. Will give this a go. I lost my mum last year, her chicken and mushroom pie was a thing of beauty. Annoyingly I don’t have her recipe but this looks pretty close 👍🏻
@@LindaC616 Thank you, Linda. Unfortunately no - ours was a small family but I’m confident Cheryl’s recipe is as close as I’ll get. I know my mum used to poach the chicken in her slow cooker, everything else seems the same. Having said that I don’t think she had a pastry base, so it was just a lidded version.
@@AKBrechin ah, what a shame! My mom passed over 20 years ago, but between the niece (who's more like a little sister) and some cousins, we can track down most things. I remember when I was in grad school, I tried to replicate my mom's beef and noodles, since I had helped her make the noodles as a young child. Unfortunately, I forgot the step where you unroll them and dry them, so I got a gluey mess!
Lovely recipe demonstration and I could devour it myself! As you say very rewarding making your own pie! Glad you recently enjoyed a trip to my home city of Liverpool!
I made this for dinner tonight. I used chicken thighs on the bone and poached them in a roasting tin full of stock-type veg, herbs and water, in the oven (covered with foil), then shredded the meat the same. I used the strained liquid from the cooking as the stock and added the rest of the white wine I had from a miniature bottle to the sauce, as it was reducing. (I used a drop less cream to make up for the extra wine.) Absolutely amazing pie! I even had 4 extra portions of homemade stock for the freezer doing it that way. Thanks for the recipe!
Lovely presentation, you've got my subscription. Looking forward to going through the rest of your videos. And hey, that heartagram was a blast from the past!
As usual. Thanks. I have only had a Chicken and Mushroom Pie once (chip shop type pie or similar) didn't like it and have avoided them ever since. However your filling looks wonderful so it shall be done. I try to make individual ones to freeze but I think I will make it as is and then think about some freezer saved ones based on the result. Had success in the past with beefy ones, maybe yours, unsure. Yes - they were yours because we have the same little pie tins. I rarely follow the recipe exactly because of practical (not got it) reasons but a close try. I made the Quorn Cottage Pie thing recently for instance. Realised I did not have enough potatoes so it got frozen in portions and has been used as a Pasta topping. Its OK and that excersise will be repeated, - when I remember the potatoes. :-)
I love your channel! I’ve made the chicken pie which was delicious so am now going to try more of your fantastic recipes. I find your videos really calming to watch & listen to!
A wonderful video and very easy to follow . I'm inspired to give this pie a go , it looks perfect and i bet it tastes perfect too . I have already had great success with your Mince and Onion tray pie , the Scotch Pies and your Scones . you make real food at its best , thank you so much for sharing your amazing cooking skills with me .
Another wonderful recipe, Cheryl. I chose the cheese and onion one in the questionnaire so hopefully you may do that one at a later date. I have never cooled a pie before but you inspire me to have a go! It looks so succulent.
For what it's worth, no foil is needed if you use clean tumbled natural stone. I use tumbled agates. Quite posh, but totally works and saves on the foil for the Sunday Roast. These sorts of pies can be made and frozen. Simply prep up to the point of baking (in the tin) and rapidly cool in the freezer till dead cold but nit frozen. Wrap in reusable large zip bags then freeze hard for 3 days before stacking. Will keep for 1 year in the freezer.;)
Lovely recipe. (I will use a BECHAMEL for less calories.) To 'SEAL' the edge of the crust, I use a FORK, and press down all the way around. (makes a nice pattern too) Thank you for this recipe. 🙂🙂🙂
You could have poached your chicken breasts in the chicken stock that you bought. It would have added to the flavour of both the chicken and the stock.
Hi there, if it hasn’t been mentioned already…the shiny side of the tin foil reflects the heat. Using the dull side up encourages good heat of what it covers. Thank you for your tea time meals. Love the scenery clips you often add, beautiful 🤩
Alas that is an old wives tale. One side is shiny purely from how the foil is milled in the manufacturing process. Both sides are just as effective as each other and neither has a benefit over the other.
I really love your channel gives me ideas instead of the same thing over and over again. I'm going to make this but I think I'm going to also put either peas or carrots with the mushrooms in it
Great pie, look forward to trying your recipe!! Makes no difference what side of foil you use, one side is only shiny because how it comes off the rollers in the manufacturing process. Total old wives tale that one side is better than the other. Only if using non-stick foil then best use the dull side as this is what has the non-stick on it.
This is delicious, I love it. I must make for one Scottish man. Yesterday I cook your stovies, I didn't put swede, instead I put little cabbage and garlic, chilli. He was mad he didn't likes garlic and chilli. I didn't make completely same like yours. I told him to go in Scotland and to eat there real Scottish food, he have also there family.
Mushrooms and tarragon with chicken! Yippee Jackpot! It's like you snuck over and looked at my herb garden while I was sleeping. Going to be mid 30s today 37 they say so no chance of making that in the next few days but maybe on the weekend. Great job Cheryl!
I cheat, I make the filling in a pot. Then I score the puff pastry into diamonds and bake separately. Slice and put on top of filling on the plate. Good if you want the pie with less work/time. You can make the filling while the pastry is cooking so it all comes together in no time.
I think I would have used all the pastry up and made a bigger pie, particularly as you were having to leave some of the expensive chicken filling out so as not to overfill that small foil plate.
I guess I always thought tea time was just cookies and small wee sandwiches. Shows how much this American knows. Can you explaining how lunch, tea time, and dinner are compared to us over the pond.
Cheryl, great videos. Just an observation. That chopping board looks like it's made from a soft wood, a harder wood board would be a safer option, as it has a tighter grain, to resist being impregnated by bacteria. If you look it up, it may give you an idea as to what type to use. All the best.
Hello. Im new to your channel and really enjoyed watching this. I will have to try it sometime,but prob will add some peas/carrots to it. Looks yummy!!! Looking forward in seeing many more of your videos. Thanks
Sainsburys is a dear supermarket, plus she's bought organic free range chicken which costs much more than non-organic - you can get trays of 5 non-organic for £6.00 no problem.
Hi Cheryl, I am definitely going to have a go at this. It looks amazing. By the way, Cheryl, do you know why tinned steak & kidney pie fillings are now not available in the supermarkets? I can't find any at all.
Lovely recipe, except when it comes to poaching the chicken, I have it cut smaller in the first place, and drop it into the hot stock. Then cool, leave the chicken in the stock... I find it tastier and moister. Then follow all the other steps. Lovely.
Quick question, can I just don't use white wine? It's not about the alcohol I just don't drink, so I don't have anything in the house and alcohol is so expensive, it would hurt my soul to buy a bottle just for a pie. Should I substitute or just leave it out?
@TheRenaissanceman65 Oh no, that won't work. I react very sensitive to alcohol and my psychologist said it would be best to keep alcohol outside of my house at all time. Eating things with cooked off alcohol in it would be fine but I don't want to risk anything. But thank you for the suggestion
@TheRenaissanceman65 Yes I understood that. Since another user already told me it would be okay to leave out, I didn't think it would be necessary to show I have registered that information. I'm sorry about the misunderstanding. I might try apple juice actually. Sounds definitely interesting
um a wee bit a cheat at this i use tined chken but i put fresh veg in it wee sweet peas and fresh musroomsi boil it no ta death like then bake after it chills i do make my own paster however lolthem foilbv tins are a wee godsend
Thanks for another great recipe idea. This looks delicious! Do you think it would work well to do this with smaller, individual pies? And would this freeze well, do you think? Thanks again for giving me so many new recipe ideas!
@@AmoCultumAlo I am looking for a house because the place I am living was sold. So I have to be out by October 1st, but have nowhere to go. One of the conditions of finding a place was that I couldn't have a galley kitchen. The agent sent me a listing that said it was a galley kitchen. But I thought it looked a tiny bit bigger. When I saw it today, I said, "I can roll out bread dough and pie dough and make cookies here!!"😄 I haven't done much of that in 10 years because because I have no counter space in my current kitchen
@@WhatsForTea When I make a meat pie or any other pie I put a heavy duty tray that is big enough to take the pie tin on the floor of the oven to heat up and cook my pie on that. It works really well and it saves a step by cutting out the blind bake stage. I have been cooking for over fifty years and have made a LOT of pies over the years. I do the same for quiches. I really enjoy your channel though, I only found it recently but I am always interested to see what ordinary people and families eat and also what they buy to feed themselves. I am very much a 'don't buy if I can make it' person and always have been. You have such a lovely accent and voice. The traditional Scottish dishes you make are the ones that appeal to me the most.
