Creamy Mushroom & ‘Chicken’ Pie

This pie has plenty of mushrooms and is super creamy – best slow cooked to get the soy pieces nice and soft. Great with some puff pastry, roast potatoes and vegetables!

Ingredients:

  • Chicken like soy pieces (plenty of choices in shops like Asda)
  • Coconut yogurt alternative (or coconut milk)
  • Vegan cream (optional)
  • Butter (I use flora buttery)
  • Soya Milk (or another milk alternative)
  • White mushrooms
  • Half red onion (or 1 small one)
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic
  • Ready roll puff pastry (I’ve found most of these are vegan friendly)
  • salt and pepper
  • vegetable stock (x1 cube/portion)

Method:

  1. Heat a pan with some olive oil and finely chopped garlic
  2. Once garlic starts to become golden, add finely chopped onion
  3. Finely chop as many mushrooms as you’d like (I typically use 2-3 handfuls) and add to the pan (or straight into the slow cooker)
  4. Once ingredients have softened up, add to the slow cooker
  5. Add the frozen soy pieces, yogurt/milk, tablespoon of butter and some soya milk to the pot
  6. Also add seasoning and stock

    (If you’re not using a slow cooker, keep to the pan, and add some plain flour to the mixture to thicken it.)
  7. Once ready to serve, a piece of oven cooked ready roll pastry popped on top with a side of veg and roast potatoes does the trick.
