MINI CREAMY MUSHROOM PIES

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fry until soft. Stir in the garlic and mushrooms, season and cook for 5 mins until the mushrooms are soft. Stir in the parsley and cream. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Grease a 6-hole muffin tin with butter, then line each hole with a long thin strip of baking parchment. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and stamp out 6 x 10 cm circles. Press a circle into each hole to line. Roll out the remaining pastry (you may need to re-roll trimmings) and stamp out 6 x 8cm circles.
• Divide the mushroom mix between the pies. Brush the pastry edges with a little egg, top each with a pastry lid and carefully press the pastry edges together to seal.
• Brush with the remaining egg and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden. Allow to cool in the tin slightly before serving, or cool on a wire rack and keep in airtight containers for up to 1 day. Reheat before serving.

CREAMY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIES

Steps:

• For the pies: Place a large sheet pan on a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, tossing the mushrooms occasionally, until they soften and turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the chicken, mustard and chives. Add the cream cheese and stir until the cheese is melted. Remove from the heat.
• Lightly flour a work surface and roll the pastry into an 11-inch square. Cut the pastry in half. Divide the chicken and mushroom mixture in half and place each half on one end of each rectangle of pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides.
• Brush the border with the egg and fold over the other half of the puff pastry. Use a fork to crimp and seal the edges. Cut slits in the tops of the pies to vent. Brush the tops of the pies lightly with the egg. Transfer the pies to the hot baking sheet and bake until deep golden brown, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for the salad: Whisk together the lemon juice, oil and mustard in a large bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Fold in the thinly sliced onions and toss occasionally to soften, 5 to 10 minutes.
• When ready to serve, toss the lettuce and chives into the dressing.
