Mini Chicken And Bacon Pot Pies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 slices bacon, chopped
    9 oz button mushrooms, sliced
    2 tbsp chopped fresh thyme leaves
    2 tbsp all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup milk
    1 cup heavy cream
    1/2 None rotisserie chicken, shredded into chunks
    4 oz corn kernels (or cooked peas)
    1/2 bunch baby spinach
    3 None spring onions, chopped
    2-3 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
    1 None large egg, beaten with 1 tbsp milk or cream
    1 None large egg, beaten with 1 tbsp milk or cream
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F. Line 2-3 baking trays with parchment paper.
    Heat a frying pan over medium heat and cook bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels. Wipe pan clean and add a little olive oil. Saute mushrooms and thyme for 5-7 mins, until soft. Whisk flour and 1/4 cup milk until smooth. Whisk in remaining milk and cream then add to pan and simmer gently for 5 mins, or until thickened. Add chicken, bacon, corn, spinach and onions and mix until combined. Season. Remove from heat and cool until just warm.
    Meanwhile, roll out puff pastry until 1/8 inch-thick. Cut into 5 inch rounds. Spoon filling between centers of 1/2 the rounds. Brush outer edge with egg mixture then top with another round, pressing edges firmly to seal. Place on prepared trays and bake for 15-20 mins, until golden brown.
