Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6. Spoon the Get-ahead gravy leftovers into the bottom of a dish with the gravy and stir together to loosen. Season with sea salt and black pepper, then set aside.
Peel and quarter the potatoes, then cook in a large pan of boiling salted water on a medium heat for 20 minutes, or until tender, then drain and steam dry.
Tip the potatoes back into the empty pan, add the butter, milk, and a good pinch of salt and pepper, then mash well.
Evenly spoon the mash over the Get-ahead gravy leftovers, smooth the surface slightly, then use a fork to fluff it up – this will give you great texture once it’s cooked. Drizzle the pie with a little olive oil and season lightly.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until golden and bubbling, roughly chopping and sprinkling over the rosemary leaves for the last 15 minutes.

Tips

– To prep your Get-ahead gravy leftovers, once cool, carefully pick through the chicken and discard all the bones and any whole spices and herbs – you need to be very careful here, so put on a Christmas podcast and take your time.
– Chicken leftovers from the gravy can only be reheated once, and must be piping hot to serve.
