Tips
It is best served warm, in deep plates, with a side of mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables. Garnish with fresh thyme and serve with cold beer or red wine.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, it's best to use the oven at 180°C for about 20-25 minutes, until the pastry is crispy again.
