Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a medium frying pan, a peeler, a masher, a sieve, a measuring jug & a medium ovenproof dish

Get started

  • Cut the carrots into 2cm thick batons (peel optional). Trim and halve the sprouts
  • Place the carrot onto the lined baking tray and toss with 1 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 10 mins
  • Peel and dice the potatoes into 3cm chunks, then add to the saucepan. Simmer for 15-18 mins, until soft, then drain. Return to the pan and mash with 2 tbsp cashew cream (1 tbsp for 1 person) and a pinch of salt and pepper

Start the pie filling & finish roasting

  • Slice the leek into 1cm thick half-moons. Finely chop or crush the garlic
  • Heat the medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the turkey and leek and cook for 6 mins, until golden. Season with salt and pepper
  • After 10 mins, add the sprouts to the carrot tray and roast for a further 10-15 mins, until soft and golden. Drizzle with the honey in the final 2 mins, until sticky and glazed, then set aside and cover to keep warm

Simmer simmer

  • Dissolve the cornflour in the jug with 50ml cold water (25ml for 1 person), then top up with 100ml hot water (50ml for 1 person)
  • Stir the fresh garlic and garlic herb paste into the turkey and cook for 1 min, then add the remaining cream, the stock powder and cornflour mixture. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 14 mins, until the turkey is cooked through
  • Stir the cranberry relish into the turkey in the final 1 min. Season to taste with salt and pepper

Final touches

  • Transfer the turkey mixture to the medium ovenproof dish. Top with the mash and spread evenly. Use a fork to scrape lines onto the topping
  • Bake for 8-10 mins, until golden brown and bubbling

Roast & plate up

  • Check your turkey is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear
  • Share the turkey pie between plates, along with the roasted carrot and sprouts
