Gammon Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1/2 onion, peeled and chopped
    170 g gammon steaks, diced
    325 g sweetcorn, drained (half a can)
    green beans, chopped
    2 teaspoons plain flour
    1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
    1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard
    85 ml white wine
    85 -110 ml double cream
    85 -110 ml milk
    110 g red leicester cheese
    1/2 vegetable bouillon cube
    375 g puff pastry (1/4 of a pack)
    1 egg yolk, beaten
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 220C/425\u00b0F.
    Heat the oil in a large pan and saute the onion, garlic, gammon, sweetcorn and beans for three to four minutes.
    Add the flour, dill, and mustard to the pan and heat for a further one to two minutes.
    Pour in the wine, cream, milk, and cheese stirring continuously.
    Crumble in the stock cube and simmer gently for eight to ten minutes.
    Roll the puff pastry out to one to two centimeters thick, to line a serving plate. Use the plate as a template to cut around the pastry.
    Dot the pastry with a knife and place on a baking sheet. Brush the pastry with the egg yolk to glaze.
    Bake in the oven for five to six minutes, or until crisp and golden.
    Transfer the gammon mixture to a plate or bowl.
    Remove the pastry from the oven and use to top the gammon, to form a pie.
    Serve.
