This was lovely with mashed potato and the gravy. The mushy peas weren’t that much chop.

Recipe
Herbert Adams Chicken and Leek Pie floater on mashed potato and gravy with semi-mushy peas
- 2 Herbert Adams Chicken and Leek Pies (Frozen)
- 1 cup Gravox™ instant gravy
- 1 packet Birds Eye Instant mashed Potato
- 1/2 cup Coles frozen peas
-
Remove the frozen pies from the cardboard packaging and place into an oven that has been heated to 200 °C. Cook for 40 minutes.
-
Cook the frozen peas in a microwave oven for about 5 minutes and mash with a fork.
-
Cook the mashed potato in the microwave oven for 2 minutes and 30 seconds.
-
Make the gravy as per the instructions on the tin.
-
When the pies are cooked, place the mashed potatoes into the bottom of a bowl. Place a pie on top of the mashed potato. Pour the gravy around the pie and cover the mashed potato. Add the semi-mushy peas on top.
-
Shoot a photograph and then eat the pie, when that has gone, add the second pie into the gravy and mashed potato goodness. Then eat everything.

That’s the perfect winter food Gary!
Thanks Lorraine, I thought so too 😃
What a processed meal but what a delicious meal! Treat for the weekend and a hearty, warm one for winter. Can never go wrong with a pie this time of the year 😀 Love the water spout capture – beautifully done. The fountain was probably saying hi to you 😀
I like that even I was at f8 for 1/250 there was a star burst on one of the water drops 😃
A good way to start the day. Have fun in warmer climates 😃
I am. I’ve been in shorts since landing 😃
That dish looks awesome!
Thanks Sarah, Adelaide is regarded as the home of the pie floater but it’s become popular throughout Australia.
I’ve never heard of it before. Of course, that’s not something we would consider a pie here.
Phaff….I like that almost as much as Piffle!!! I love frozen pies, but don’t think I can add more carbs with the island and gravy stuff. Why do you mush the peas???????
Mushy peas is a traditional thing with a pie floater. I did it because it’s what’s expected 😃
I’ll be jiggered!!!!!
