Jamie Oliver Leek and Potato Pie
Ingredients :
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 leeks, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
- 2 large potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 tbsp plain flour
- 500ml vegetable stock
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 sheet ready-made puff pastry
- Fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)
Directions :
1. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the leeks and cook for another 3-4 minutes until tender.
2. Add the diced potatoes to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute more.
4. Gradually whisk in the vegetable stock, thyme, salt, and pepper until smooth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
5. Stir in the butter. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
6. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
7. Roll out the puff pastry slightly to fit a 20cm pie dish. Line the dish with the pastry, trimming any excess.
8. Pour the leek and potato mixture into the pastry-lined dish.
9. Fold the edges of the pastry over the filling, crimping the edges to seal.
10. Brush the top of the pastry with a little milk or beaten egg to give it a golden color. Sprinkle with chopped chives.
11. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
12. Let cool slightly before serving.
