Lamb and mushroom pie recipe

One of the best things ever is puff pastry. Why wouldn’t you like it, seeing as how it’s made of butter and flour? If you put it over a stew made with beef or lamb, you’ll have a fantastic meal waiting for you when you get home from work. This lamb and mushroom pie is perfect for rainy nights in, and it can be assembled entirely from leftovers. Prepare a meal using the leftover lamb chops you have lying around.

Lamb and mushroom pie suggestions

Making puff pastry may be tedious, and it’s much easier to just buy frozen dough from the supermarket and heat it up. Lamb that has been cooked for a longer period of time tastes even better, and the addition of mushrooms cooked in butter makes the dish even more decadent. You may vary the pot pie recipe by using different veggies like potatoes and carrots. A crisp green salad is a great accompaniment to this pie because of its richness.

If it starts to rain this summer, get some puff pastry and cook a hearty pot pie for dinner. Here, have a piece of this pie with lamb and mushrooms.
