Prep time: 40 min
Cook time: 35 min
Total time: 1 h 15 min
Yield: 4 serving(s)
Ingredients: 1/2 cup (75 g) whole wheat flour; 1/3 cup (50 g) unbleached all-purpose flour; 1 pinch salt; 1/3 cup (75 g) cold unsalted butter, diced; 3 tbsp (45 ml) plain yogurt; 1 egg, beaten, for brushing; 1/2 lb (225 g) oyster mushrooms, sliced; 3 tbsp butter; 4 cups (240 g) Tuscan kale, stems removed, finely chopped; 2 tbsp unbleached all-purpose flour; 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) turkey stock; 1/4 cup (60 ml) dry white wine; 2 cups (340 g) poached turkey meat, chopped; 1 tsp finely chopped tarragon

Preparation

Crust
- In a food processor, combine the two flours and salt. Add the butter and pulse until pea-sized pieces form. Add the yogurt and pulse until the dough starts to come together. Remove the dough from the processor and shape into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
Filling
- Meanwhile, in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the mushrooms in the butter. Add the kale and continue cooking for 2 minutes or until the kale is wilted. Sprinkle with the flour and stir to combine. Add the stock and wine. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sauce begins to thicken. Add the turkey and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper. Stir well.
- Divide the mixture between four 1 1/2-cup (375 ml) ramekins that are about 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter.
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Divide the dough into 4 pieces. On a lightly floured surface, using a rolling pin, roll the dough into 5-inch (12.5 cm) circles. Make a 1/2-inch (1.5 cm) hole in the centre of each circle.
- Top each ramekin with a circle of dough, letting the sides overhang. Press lightly so the dough adheres to the outside of the ramekin. Brush with the beaten egg. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet. The pot pies can be frozen at this point.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until the crust is nicely browned. Let rest for 10 minutes. Serve with cranberry sauce, if desired.
