Chicken and Mushroom Pie

85 grm soft butter
50 grm grated cheddar cheese
1 Tsp coarse grain mustard
For the filling
500 grm chicken breast cut into chunks
2 med size Onions
25 grm butter
2 Tsp sunflower oil
12 Large Button Mushrooms quartered
350 mls chicken stock
3 tbls Arrowroot
1 tbls cold water
4 tbls Creme fraiche
Method
Mix the flour, a pinch of salt and the butter in a bowl, then stir in the cheese. Blend 2 tbsp cold water with the mustard and stir in. Form into a dough. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
Fry the chicken andonion in the hot butter and oil for 5 minutes until golden. Add the mushrooms and fry for 2 -3 minutes until softened. Add the stock, bring to the boil then cover and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 170*c . Transfer the chicken.onions and mushrooms to a dish with a slotted spoon – leave the stock in the pan. Make a paste with the arrowroot and 1 tbsp cold water. Then add to the pan and stir on the heat non-stop until thickened. Take off the heat, stir in crème fraîche, season and pour over the chicken and mushrooms. Mix all together. Leave to cool.
Roll out the pastry on gluten free floured bench till 1cm thick. Cut 4 round circles with a 4inch cutter(bottom of pies) and 4 round circles with a 3inch cutter(pie lids). Place the bottoms in a lightly buttered muffin tray add chicken mix. Put lids on top ensuring pastry is closed up so nothing escapes.
Put in a preheated oven 170*c for 15 mins. Remove and tuck in.
I serve this with mash,mushy peas,crispy kumara chips and gluten free gravy.
