Advantages: Yummy; The chicken and mushrooms tasted fresh and they were cooked good

Disadvantages: None

I don't eat that many pies but Tesco had reduced a pile of Pukka Pies the other day to 75p each so we got a few to freeze for in the week. Today I needed something stodgy to help my stomach forget how much Malibu I drunk last night so got a Chicken And Mushroom one out to get something in my tummy.

It was delish and a zillion times better than the manky Fray Bentos Chicken And Mushroom pie I ate last week. It was cooked in about 20 minutes and after about half the time there was a rich smell coming from the oven that made my mouth water and I couldn't wait for it to be done! lol

It was worth the wait because this is such a yummy pie that I reckon I could have eaten 2 and I was disappointed when I had the last bite! The pastry of top of the pie is light and crispy, it flakes all over the plate when you cut into it and isn't greasy or heavy to eat at all.

Inside the pie is packed full of pieces of chicken and mushroom, the filling is proper generous and it's all cooked nice so that you can actually tell what your eating instead of it just all tasting the same like any old pie filling.

There's a tonne of chicken and it's cooked to be lovely and tender, the mushrooms are cooked good as well and they aren't slimey or tasteless like you get in a lot of pies. The sauce they are mixed into is thick and has got a lovely flavour of herbs, it's got quite a strong taste and the flavours of the chicken and mushrooms have got into it and that makes the whole pie come together in taste.

I LOVE this pie and it's weird because this one I had today tasted just as good as the same Pukka Pie from the chippy, it's weird because I never think pies taste the same when you cook them at home but this one did and it was yummy.

Summary: A Wicked Pie, Perfect Actually!
