CHICKEN AND BEETROOT GNOCCHI CARBONARA LATTICE PIE

I was presented with the following ingredients to make a meal consisting of a 700 gm tub of carbonara sauce , 500gm of beetroot gnocchi , 500gm of chicken mince , 300gm packet of baby spinach leaves , 2 carrots and 1 onion , these also come with a request to make a tasty wholesome meal !!! preheat your oven to 200 deg C. I peeled and thinly sliced the onion and added it to a frypan with a litle cooking spray and cooked utill the onion softened ,then added the chicken mince with a tbs of mince garlic and continued to cook till the mince coloured . I then transferred the chicken to a large pot . I grated the carrots and added to the mince then added the carbonara sauce and the baby spinach leaves ....stirring thoroughly to incorporate . I added dried rosemary , cracked blackpepper , mustard seeds and bush curry , all to taste . In a separate pot I boiled water and added the beetroot gnocchi and left them cooking until they rose to the top of the pot. Then drained them and added to the mix and let the mixture simmer gently , stirring occasionally over a low heat . Transfer the mix to an ovenproof dish and top with strips of puff pastry in a criss cross pattern . Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes and the pastry is golden and puffed . Another satisfied customer .
