Tip
Store Gluten free flour mix in refrigerator for up to 7 days; flours containing milled rice may clump if stored in the pantry.
Please refer to The Basic Cookbook or Everyday Cookbook for the Chicken stock paste recipe.
Use leftover poaching liquid in future recipes (such as making gravy).
To cut out pastry discs, use the base of your pie dishes or small dinner plates as your guide.
One large pie can be made by lining a 22 cm metal pie tin. Make a cross in the middle of the pie to let out steam. Preheat oven to 200°C. Reduce oven to 170°C and bake pie for 45-50 minutes or until golden and metal skewer inserted into the centre comes out hot.

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

We loved these, I used homemade cashew cream, and different pastry, but very nice
My family absolutely loved these
O M G freaking amazing recipe. Love the suggestion of adding mushrooms. I use this in the pie maker with short crust pastry on the bottom and puff pastry on the top. I have made and frozen the pies, I now have to make batches of 12 as they just disappear off the plates, they make a wonderful lunch at work, or dinner with steamed vegetables and salad. Thankyou TM, amazing recipe.
I have looked at this recipe for ages and am sorry now I took so long to make it. I didn't have enough leeks so topped up with onion and I shredded the chicken as I prefer that texture. The pastry is amazing! Do yourself a favour and make this!!
Really tasty, I added mushrooms and celery. I had no white chia seeds so had to use black ones, still looked ok.
This makes six small portions, you will need a side dish or two if feeding six people.
SENSATIONAL 😍

SOOOOOO DELICIOUS!!
I saw this recipe on the Thermomix in NZ FB page and thought I'd give it a go. We aren't gluten intolerant in our family, so I didn't go to the trouble of making the flour - instead I substituted it an all purpose GF flour. I got it all ready the day before and then assembled it and put it straight in the oven and steamed some peas in my Thermomix during the last 5 minutes. It was SOOOOOOO tasty! The pastry was great - really flaky and the mustard gives it a great flavour! And the filling - I could probably have eaten it by itself the minute it was cooked!!! The only change I'd make next time would be to shred the chicken once it's cooked rather than having quite large chunks in it. I made one big pie and it fed a family of 5 with a little left over. Will definitely be making this again. Thank you!
I made these with ready puff pastry because I was in a rush just delicious. Next time I will make the pastry.
Thank you from Thermomishes
Yummy filling. I used the EDC pastry. I also used 350g breast fillet & 250g thigh. I didn't make enough pastry for individual pies so I made a large one - easy. The recipe is fiddly but worth the effort. The filling would be great with rice & next time I'll add some veg.
this pie was fantastic. Best GF pastry I have tried. I also added mushrooms.
