We were at our local supermarket the other day and we were excited to see our favourite Pukka Pies, chicken and mushroom pie. To add on to our excitement, it was going at £1 instead of the usual £1.40. Heaven!
My husband love pukka pie, he tells about his younger days when he would get a pukka chicken and mushroom pie on the way home from school for himself and his father. He was glad to see Pukka pie on the supermarket shelf today.
Pukka Pies have been around since 1963, started in Leicester and run by one man, Trevor Storer who is now the chairman of the company. The pie is round in shape and sit nicely on a foil tray. The cardboard packaging further enhances the company image of being environment friendly.
There are different types of Pukka Pies, such as steak and kidney, beef and onions, all steak, our favourite is chicken and mushroom pie. The chicken and mushroom is encrusted in a puff pastry case. To heat the pie, simply heat the pie for 20 minutes in a preheated oven, 170°C or gas mark 3. The nicely browned pastry and the fillings filled the kitchen with its lovely aroma.
As you dig into the pie, the light sauce with noticeable chunks of chicken and mushroom fills up your mouth and arouse your taste bud, making you want more. I have tried several brand of chicken and mushroom pie and Pukka Pie is the only one that you can see pieces of chicken and mushroom.
Pukka Pies pride themselves in using only the finest, wholesome ingredients; the pies does not contain hydrogenated fat, no artificial flavouring and preservatives and best of all, less salt per 100grams than government target of 1.1gram.
As you would have guess, we bought 6 chicken and mushroom pukka pies, two to indulge immediately and freeze the other 4 for a later date.
Pukka Pies is a true, quality English food that is nutritious and good value for money.
Summary: true, quality English food
