Today I am going to make a breakfast casserole with some leftover potatoes I have, and later I will make a chicken pot pie.

That is kind of the whole point of these threads. I can't cook that well and I want to show those of you that only eat Doritos and ramen that semi decent meals are possible.
Love you, buddy.
If it makes you any more mad I will be putting biscuts on top of it.

Cut the sprouting eyes out of my potatoes and cubed them.
Now frying in a decent amount of olive oil just below it's smoke point.

[Anonymous No.12716303]

Salt your homefries and dispose of most of the oil.

[Anonymous No.12716349]

did you boil potatoes before frying? it will help a lot. nice thread sir.

[Anonymous No.12716350]

I used nine eggs.
A little thyme, a little onion powder, a little salt, and a little pepper.
I also threw in some cheese sauce I had leftover from a restaurant because I am a degenerate.
Then ya blend.

Potatoes, then egg, then sliced onions. Don't worry your pretty little heads, cheese goes on in about ten minutes.
Into the oven at 350.

I appreciate the graf post but I'm not sure how I feel about your handstyle, my guy.
OP here, I'm out running some errands but I will be on my way home and getting things rolling in about an hour or so.
Does anyone have a good pie crust recipe that they favor?

Yeah I wasn't too happy with it myself. I haven't written in like seven years and I was never particularly any good 2bh. My boys in highschool were total killers though. Anywho, in regards to piecrust I usually just go with premade.

My throwers are fucking garbage. I haven't gotten up in years, and the most I ever got up was when I was AWFUL. I'm not very good right now, either. I just developed a shitty handstyle alphabet and write random words on my whiteboard. Some kids from my HS are INSANE now. They went down to Miami where people get killed over that shit, but they are super talented.

Try making your egg wash with yolk, milk, and a bit of salt. When you let the salt sit with the yolk for a bit, it'll help break out down and make it more liquidy, making it easier to spread. Using yolk + milk will give you a shinier coating just milk or whole egg, due to the concentrated protein in the yolk (and milk, vs adding water). I find just the yolk + salt alone is hard to coat the pie evenly with. You can also add sugar to it to get some extra shine, regardless of what you make it with.

Also, if you poach the chicken at a bare simmer and take it out when it's only just reached 165 or a little before (it'll cook a bit inside the pie), it'll come out more tender. I usually use chicken thighs because I find them tastier, and they're thin and flat enough that you can poach them as-is without any cutting, then just cut them into pieces afterward for incorporating into the pie.

Canned cream of chicken soup instead of boullion or chicken stock is a bit weird, but will probably work fine. I usually poach the chicken in the stock, along with herbs from the garden. Helps flavor the chicken a bit, and flavor the stock with the herbs. Then once the chicken is poached, condense the broth down for later incorporation with the bechamel to make the gravy for the pie filling.

No worries, putting the glove on and wearing it throughout cooking caused any blood to float around and make it look much, much worse than it actually was.

Well shit, that's pretty awesome. I figured they charged for more than one so I never ask.

[Anonymous No.12722533]

That's kind of what I was thinking.
Also I can see one tiny piece of chicken. Lots and lots of potatoes, though.
>>12722120
Nah, usually chicken and dumplings is actual dumplings and just chicken in a white gravy.
I get what you mean, though. It's not a pie. It's just insanely good chicken pot pie filling with biscuits on top.
It would be god tier and true to form if I put it in a crust.
