Homestyle Pork Pot Pie goes together quickly with the use of store-bought pie dough and leftover pork. Comfort food for all!&nbsp;

Homestyle Pork Pot Pie

pie crusts

butter

all purpose flour

chicken stock

salt

black pepper

minced garlic

pork

thyme

Dijon mustard

vegetables

water

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

On a lightly floured surface, carefully roll out one of the pie crusts. Transfer the pie crust to a prepared pie pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. 

**Note  - To help with the transfer of the dough, roll the dough loosely onto the rolling pin and unroll it carefully over the pie pan. Press the dough into the pie pan and allow the excess to fold over the sides of the pan. Set aside.

In a large stockpot over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes. Switch to a whisk and add the chicken stock, salt, pepper, and garlic. Whisk continually until the mixture heats and thickens (approximately 5-7 minutes).

Using a wooden spoon, stir in the thyme, mustard, pork, minced garlic, and frozen vegetables. Cook, stirring occasionally to heat through.

Carefully pour the pork filling into the prepared pie crust. On a lightly floured surface, roll the second pie crust out like the first one.  Transfer the dough over the pork filling (on the rolling pin) and carefully unroll to cover.

Use a paring knife to trim the excess dough away (saving some for the leaf garnish), and use a fork to press and seal the bottom and top crusts together. 

Use a paring knife to cut some steam holes into the top crust, and insert a pie bird (optional).

Use some of the trimmed dough to cut out leaf shapes and use a little water to adhere the leaves to the top of the pie (optional).

In a small bowl, mix the egg and 1 tablespoon water. Brush the egg wash over the top crust. 

Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is heated through.

Cool for at least 20 minutes and serve.

potatoes

quinoa ((dry weight))

parsley

olive oil

onion

garlic (minced, optional)

red bell pepper (or equivalent mixed peppers)

pumpkin seeds

black pepper (optional)

tbsp tahini

Preheat the oven to 200C and line a baking tray with parchment paper. One at temperature, pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork and then bake for 35-40 minutes (depending upon the size of the potato).

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare your quinoa according to packet instructions. Add a tsp of dried parsley to the cooking water.

In a pan, heat the olive oil and gently fry the onion or leeks and garlic for 3-5 minutes until softened. Add the peppers, quinoa, salt and pepper. Stir well and cook for 6-8 minutes until the peppers are tender.

Make the tahini dressing by combining tahini and water and stirring well until it becomes creamy. Add more water if it is too thick, more tahini if too thin to the consistency you prefer.

Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, slice lengthways and use a fork to &#039;fluff up&#039; the potato in the middle. Spoon in the quinoa mixture, then drizzle with the tahini dressing. Add a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds. Serve and enjoy!
