500g (1lb 2oz) potatos, peeled and cut into chunks
25g (1oz) butter
100ml (3oz) milk
50g (2oz) Cheddar cheese, grated
15g (1/2 oz) Parmesan, grated
1 leek, thinly sliced
1 large or 2 small shallots, finely chopped
300ml (1/2 pint) chicken stock
100ml (3 1/2 fl oz) double cream
300g (10 1/2 oz)shredded, cooked chicken
75g (3oz) frozen peas
1 tbsp chopped parsley
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt and Pepper
Cara-cara
Pre-heat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/400F / Gas 6.
Put the potatoes in cold salted water, bring to the boil then reduce
the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until tender. Drain and mash
with butter, milk and the grated cheeses.
Melt the butter in a saucepan and cook the leek and shallot gently for
8 to 10 minutes until soft but not coloured. Stir in the flour and cook
for one minute, then stir in the stock a little at a time, to make a
smooth sauce (you may find it easier to do this off the heat).
Stir in the cream, then cook, stirring until the sauce just comes to
the boil. Stir in the chicken, peas and parsley, then remove from the
heat and stir in the lemon juice and season to taste. Spoon into a one
and a half litre dish and top with mash. Bake in the oven for about 20
minutes and then finish off for a few minutes under the grill until
golden brown. It’s a good idea to place the dish on a baking sheet to
catch any drips.
