Slow cooked game pie mix.

I have made a delicous game pie for the first time and it was so easy to do. The meat was so succulent and melted in the mouth. I diced a red onion, and 4 carrots and fried off the pie mix to brown it in my slow cooker, I then added a stock cube and water to cover it,  then added a Shropshire spice mix Stroganoff sachet to intensify the favour.  And left it to cook for 5 hours.  The smells in the kitchen were great!  My daughter Grace then shredded the meat and added some frozen sweetcorn,   thickended the sauce with gravy granuales futher before putting it an pie dish.

We then added shortctust pasty on top of the pie mix.  And cooked for 35 minutes in an electric oven at 180 degrees.  We serves it with boiled potatoes and petit pois. Delicious. Game Pie mix is £7.50 for 500g and fed 4-6 portions.
