  • Strain the liquid into a jug and reserve 250ml for the sauce.

  • Slowly whisk the reserved poaching liquid into the roux until smooth and thick.
  • Season with nutmeg, parsley, and salt, then stir in the cooked chicken and vegetables.
  • Cool the filling for 10 minutes and preheat the oven to 220°C.
  • Cut the pastry to fit a 14x18cm dish leaving a 3cm border.
  • Line the dish rim with pastry strips and fill with the chicken mixture.
  • Seal the pastry lid on top, cut a 1cm vent, and brush with egg glaze.
  • Bake for 30 minutes until golden brown.
