Instructions for making Little Yellow Bird Pie

Get some pasta

But first, cut the breastmeat and thighmeat off your little yellow bird carcasses. Keep the meat to one side, put the rest of the carcasses in a stockpot with a roughly chopped carrot, a sliced onion, two cloves of garlic, two bay leaves, three crushed black peppercorns, a couple of sprigs of thyme and a leek. Pour over water and simmer for ninety minutes before straining to make your little yellow bird stock.

Right, back to the pancetta, when it's rendered some of its fat and is sizzling nicely add the reserved little yellow bird meat, sear on each side, add a small handful flour and cook for three minutes then turn the heat down, add the stock to cover and simmer until the sauce is nice and thick.

While that's going on, grab some more flour, rub some butter in, little pinch of salt, dribble of water and knead it a bit, then roll it out and cover the base and sides of your pie dish.

Tip your little yellow bird meat in and put puff pastry top on it

Put it in the oven until it's cooked.

Waller ! little yellow bird pie

Try not to swear whilst cooking, it's rude and spoils the enjoyment
