The pie was good, quite sweet as you'd expect. It went well with onion gravy made with the water the carrots and parsnip were boiled in and mashed potatoes. I have to confess though it is not the most photogenic dish I've made!

Parrot Pie
Parrot as in parsnip and carrot - my carnivorous son was disappointed to discover it didn't contain any exotic birds. I got the recipe from the veg box recipes website. It is basically mashed carrots and parsnips in a cheese sauce in a pie. I'd normally make my own pastry but my in-laws have gone to France for a couple of months and we inherited the contents of their freezer including some frozen shortcrust pastry so I used that.
