  • 500g Turkey Mince
  • 2 tbsp Cornflour

  • 1 tbsp Cream Cheese

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C Fan / 220°C Electric.
  2. Heat the oil in an oven proof pan on the hob, add the leeks and allow to soften a little, then add the mince and allow to cook for a few minutes.
  3. Mix in the cornflour so it coats the mince.
  4. Then add the stock, milk, salt, pepper and thyme. Let it simmer until it starts to nicely thicken.
  5. Remove from the heat and stir in the cream cheese and cranberry sauce this helps to thicken the sauce further and provides lots of flavour.
  6. Boil then mash your potatoes, I just add a knob of butter, salt and pepper.
  7. Top the pie with the mash and bake until slightly golden - about 25 minutes.
  8. Remove from the oven and serve alongside some veggies.
