Recipe for pie (with ready made shortcrust)

[whatdoesntkillyou]

I have some ready made shortcrust pastry that I would like to make a pie or tart from. Can anyone share any recipes for these with me please?

Hi whatdoesntkillyou,
I use ready made shortcrust pastry to make lots of different types of pies.

• chicken cooked in gravy or thickened stock with veg.
• turkey and ham with white/ cheese sauce
• cheese and onion
• sweeten it with a bit of sugar on top of the pastry and fill it with apple/ rhubarb etc.

As for cooking guidelines I would say about 45 mins at 180 degrees but would check the packet.

Thanks for the ideas, they sound lovely.

I think I just need to 'bite the bullet' and get experimenting!!
