Method

  • step 1

    Heat ½ tbsp oil over a gentle heat in a flameproof casserole dish. Add the onion and cook for 5 mins until softening. Scatter over the thyme and garlic, and stir for 1 min. Turn up the heat and add the chicken, frying until golden but not fully cooked. Add the mushrooms and the remaining oil. Heat oven to 200C/180 fan/gas 6.

  • step 2

    Add the stock, crème fraîche, mustard and kale, and season well. Add the cornflour mixture and stir until thickened a little.

  • step 3

    Remove from the heat and cover with the puff pastry lid, pressing into the sides of the casserole dish. Slice a cross in the centre and glaze with the egg. Bake for 30 mins until the pastry is puffed up and golden.

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes this can be frozen after cooking but the pastry won't be quite so puffy when you reheat it. You'd need to defrost it in the fridge overnight then reheat at 200C/180 fan/gas 6 for about 25-30 mins until piping hot all the way to the middle (cover with foil to stop it…
