Lamb, Leek & Apricot Pie

This pie is a celebration of the best ingredients that my region has to offer, starting with tender cuts of locally sourced lamb that are slow-cooked in a savoury sauce. Juicy apricots and sweet leeks are added to the mix, providing a delightful contrast of flavours and textures. To finish it off, I use a delicate and flaky pastry crust that is made from scratch, ensuring that each bite is as delicious as the last.

Good Centre for Sunday Lunch

A tasty pie, leeks more noticeable than last time I had it, though I might have hoped for a little more lamb it was tender and well trimmed. I served it with roast potatoes and squash with peas and sprouts.

Usually superb, but butchery variable

When this is good it's very good indeed, but sometimes the lamb isn't as carefully trimmed as I'd like. Nothing puts me off a meal faster than having to spit out a mouthful of gristle. However, the recipe is a good one, and the pastry is always excellent.

Incorrect Name

Should be called Lamb & Apricot pie since the leek is present in small quantity and is cooked down so much. The pie was very nice with tender lamb chunks and the apricots whole rehydrated dried apricots. Would have preferred slightly more lamb and less apricots.

Really good

Another dish I always order. Plenty of meat, great pastry, and so flavourful with the leeks and and particularly the apricot. My wife loves it also.
