Chicken, Ham Hock & Leek Pie

What is it?

Ham hock and breast pieces sit with leeks in a creamy sauce under a puff pastry lid, sold as a frozen pie for two. It's the sort of format that bakes from frozen until the filling is hot and the top is crisp and bronzed. Compared with other pies in the range, this one leans on a mix of poultry and cured pork rather than a single meat. The sauce usually carries the vegetables through the filling, while the pastry does the structural work on top. Expect a rich, savoury filling with soft leeks running throughout.
