Steps:

• Cut the Stilton cheese into 5mm (1/4in) cubes. Mix the chopped fresh herbs with the fresh breadcrumbs.
• Roughly cut the cooked turkey meat into pieces and place in a food processor with three eggs, the mustard and the crushed garlic. Process until the mixture forms a fine paste. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Divide the turkey mixture into 12 rounds. On a lightly floured surface, pat each round into a flat circle about 6.5cm (21/2in) in diameter. Put a cube of cheese in the centre and gently bring the turkey mixture around to cover completely. Dust each patty with flour, brush with the remaining beaten egg and roll in the breadcrumb mixture. Refrigerate, uncovered, while you make the sauce.
• To make the mushroom sauce, finely slice the mushrooms. Melt the butter in a frying pan and cook the mushrooms for 5min over a high heat. Pour in the vermouth, bring to the boil and bubble until reduced by half. Add the crème fraîche, return to the boil and bubble for a further 10min or until the mixture is syrupy. Season.
