5. Fill the pastry cases and make a round pastry top with a pastry cutter and top the pies. Prick the pastry tops.

6. If using filo pastry, add about 3 sheets together and brush each one with melted butter, cut in half, place the mushroom filling in each half in the centre, grab the four corners and squeeze together to form a parcel.

7. Place in the oven until golden. garnish with fresh parsely.

 

Please Note:

Use plant-based milk without the xanthan gum and preservatives, as this makes the sauce gloopy. Stick to clean milk for recipes containing milk
