Easy Peasy Chicken Pie

This is comfort food for me. My mum used to cook this for me during weekends when I was little. I assure you this pie will be easy and most importantly YUMMY! Even if you have never made a pie before you will be able to make it!!

Ingredients: 

2 med white onions, halved and sliced.
1 can button mushroom, cleaned and sliced.
1 can Campbell cream of mushroom soup.
4 Boneless chicken thigh (cube).
3 Carrots.
3 Potatoes.
4 eggs, hard boiled and halved.
1-2 sheets ready-rolled puff pastry.
1 lightly beaten egg yolk.

 Method: 

Lay the pastry out to defrost. Preheat oven to 180C. Boil carrots and potatoes until half cooked. drain. Melt some butter/oil and stir fry onions until translucent. Add button mushroom and stir fry chicken until tender. Add boiled carrots and potatoes with the cream of mushroom condensed soup and boil for another 10minutes. Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a casserole dish. Add hard boiled eggs. Top it with a sheet of puff pastry. Press edges together and trim off excess pastry. Brush the pastry with egg yolk. Poke a few vent holes in the pastry with a sharp knife. Cook for 20-25 mins or until pastry turns golden brown. Allow it to sit for five minutes or so after removing from oven.
