Method

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan. Melt the butter in a large frying pan over a high heat and fry the mushrooms in two batches until golden and all liquid has evaporated.

  2. 2

    Reduce the heat, add the chopped onion and garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the thyme.

  3. 3

    Pour in the cream and simmer for 3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the Stilton and walnuts. Season with black pepper.

  4. 4

    Pour the filling into a 23cm pie dish and allow to cool for 10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Drape the puff pastry over the top, crimp the edges, and brush all over with beaten egg.

  6. 6

    Bake for 25–30 minutes until puffed and golden. Serve immediately with a crisp green salad.
