How to make it

  • To make the crust, sift the flour and salt into a bowl.
  • Cut in the butter and lard or margarine until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Sprinkle with 6 T of the iced water and mix until the dough holds together.
  • If necessary don't hesitate to add more iced water so the mixture will be pliable when you go to make the crust.
  • Add a tablespoon of ice water at a time.
  • Gather the dough into a ball and wrap in waxed paper.
  • Chill for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Melt 2 T of the butter in a heavy pan.
  • Whisk in the flour and cook until bubbling.

  • Stir in the turkey and peas.
  • Add the turkey mixture to the sauce and stir.
  • Taste for flavor.
  • Transfer to a 10 cup baking dish.
  • Roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thickness.
