Ingredients
  

Halloween Pot Pie: 

  • 2 rolls of shortcrust pastry
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 carrot
  • 500 g chicken breast
  • 150 g frozen peas
  • 300 g sliced button mushrooms
  • 200 ml fresh cream
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • salt
  • Milk

Spooky Eyeballs:

  • 2 hard-boiled eggs
  • 3 black olives

Instructions
 

  • In a pan, warm up a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and add the onion.
  • Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until it starts to feel tender, then add the garlic and let it cook for a minute or two.
  • Add the carrot and again, cook it for a few minutes until tender.
  • Add the frozen peas and cook until soft, then add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are almost fully cooked.
  • Dice the chicken breast and let it brown in the pan, then add the cream and mix in well. Salt accordingly and combine.
  • Let your pie filling cook for an additional ten minutes and then set aside. 
  • Preheat your oven to 180C.
  • Prepare your pie dish: unroll the first shortcrust pastry and place it on the bottom of the dish, then pour the chicken cream mix into it.
  • Unroll the second shortcrust pastry and cut uneven strips, then start placing them in a random fashion, leaving gaps for the eyes.
  • Pour some milk into a bowl, then brush the pastry and bake for 25-30 minutes at 180C or until golden.
  • First, cook and peel the eggs. Next, trim both ends of each egg. Using either a straw or a knife, create a circular opening on each end. Then, slice the olives. Finally, position the olive slices within the egg's circular openings to craft eerie eyeballs.
  • Place your egg eyeballs on your pie when it's cool, serve and enjoy a spooky Halloween pot pie!
