I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
"Closed lid" 1. Place garlic, leek and onion into mixing bowl and chop 4 seconds/speed 5.
2. Add olive oil and bacon and cook 5 mins/100C/speed 1. Scrape down sides.
3. Add butter, zucchini and carrot and cook 3 mins/100C/speed 1. Scrape down sides if needed.
4. Add chicken, mushrooms, cream, vegetable stock paste and cornflour water and cook 20 mins/100C/
"Counter-clockwise operation" /speed 0.5 with measuring cup (MC) off and simmering basket on top of lid instead.
** If filling not as thick as you like, mix 1 tablespoon cornflour with a little water and add to mixing bowl. Cook for 1 minute, 100 degrees, reverse speed 2 for 1 minute. I do this for our pies and often will just add 3 tablespoons to begin with.
** I also taste test and see if needs extra teaspoon of stock paste. If yes, add and stir through with spatula.
Note: Filling with thicken as cooling. To cool quicker, remove filling from the mixing bowl and put in another dish to finish cooling.
Enjoy!
Perfect as a pie filling for a family pie or individual pies in a pie maker. I use puff pastry for both the top and bottom of a pie when I make them in a pie maker. The filling is also great in a pasta bake or on pasta, rice or mashed potato. You could also make a large pie or mini pot pies in ramekins with pastry or mash (potato/sweet potato/cauliflower/pumpkin etc) on top. Cheese is nice on the mash too 😉 I like to add grated cheese on top of the pie filling before I put the top pastry on. So good!!!

Recipe is created forTM 6
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl. -

If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:

The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Very delicious pie filling .
Made pies for dinner tonight and the family absolutely loved it.
Will use leftover filling to make pasta bake for tomorrow nights dinner, like you suggested. Looking forward to tomorrow dinner !!
Thank you for sharing your awesome recipe with us all.
Its now family favorite so will be made often 😋
A family fave! Thank you
This was really tasty filling. My family really enjoyed it.
Why did mine turn out like a very thick soup? Used chicken thigh but otherwise followed the recipe. i had to add some diced cooked chicken so my pies had some 'content'. I'm just a new thermo user so still learning.
Yum yum yum!
I threw in the zucchini and carrot with the leek, garlic and onion to hide the veggies from the family.
Will make this again and again!
Scrumptious! Even got the tick of approval from my hard to please husband ✔️
Helene Battams: Thanks so much Helen for making my recipe and for your feedback, so appreciated 😊 I am very happy to hear you thought is was delicious and will be making it again. We loved the filling so much I just had to share it. Thanks again 💕 - Natalie
Delicious! I used large muffin tins, puff pastry and made pies with this mixture! Yum! I used chicken tender loins, but I only had about 500 g. I reduced the cream to 140 g, I only had chicken stock paste and halved the quantity. Totes delicious and I will make again! Many thanks for the recipe 💕🧑🏼🍳💕
