Family Recipe- Homemade Chicken and Mushroom Pie.

This is my Mum's homemade chicken and mushroom pie. For this she made a shortcrust pastry (from scratch!) Left it in the fridge to chill for awhile. Meanwhile we cooked the chicken and mushrooms in a pan with all the herbs and lovely bits. At the same time I (sous chef) made a white sauce to mix in with the chicken and mushrooms. Once the chicken had browned and the sauce had thickened we mixed the whole lot together and left it to chill. We then rolled out our pastry to fit our pie dish. We then placed the cooled mixture in to said dish topping it neatly with the pastry crust, and a few decorations. Lastly giving it an egg wash, and placing it in to a pre-heated oven until golden and delicious. We served ours with the best mashed potato, made with a ricer, and some broccoli & leeks! Yummy. :)
