Walpole & Long: Humble Pie

In light of the fact that Brian Cowen resigned the day we cooked and ate this we chose to call this post and this pie...Humble Pie

ingredients for the pie
chicken, leeks, onions, fresh herbs (tarragon is good), a clove of garlic, mushrooms, fresh chili and ready made or homemade pastry for the top

for the indulgent beetroot and avocado salad
fresh beets, avocados, lemon juice and roasted garlic (yum)

for the dessert
chocolate and fruit

Pie

cook the diced chicken and set aside
cook the leeks, onions, mushrooms, chili, garlic and herbs
add the chicken and after a bit pile the lot into a pie dish and cover with the rolled out pastry
in this case make the 'f's' and stick em on
bake in the oven for half an hour or so

Salad

chop fresh beets up and roast with some thyme, olive oil and lemon and 2 whole garlic cloves
roughly chop a ripe avocado
when the beets are cooked take them out and let them cool a bit, then toss with the avocado
squeeze out the roast garlic and mix it in to the beets and avocado and throw in juice of half a lemon

Chocolate fruit
