Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tbsp olive oil
2 large onions , finely sliced
300g grilled artichoke hearts, halved
300g mixed mushrooms , halved if large
1 garlic clove , crushed
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
500g pack ready-made shortcrust pastry
1 egg , a pinch of salt and 1 tbsp water, beaten together to glaze
large handful flat leaf parsley leaves, very roughly chopped
142ml carton soured cream , to serve

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat half the oil in a medium frying pan, then gently fry the onions for 12-15 mins until softened and lightly browned. Tip the onions into a bowl and mix with the artichoke hearts, season if you like and set aside. Heat the remaining oil in the same pan (there's no need to clean it) over a high-ish heat. Add the mushrooms, then stir-fry for 2-3 mins until soft, throw in the garlic and thyme and continue to cook for a minute. Remove from the heat, season well and allow to cool.
  • On a floured surface, roll out the pastry into a rough circle about 40cm in diameter and drape over a large baking sheet.
  • Pile the onions and artichokes into the middle of the pastry and spread them out evenly, leaving a 10cm border around the edge, then pile the mushrooms on top.
  • Bring the edges of the pastry up over the filling. Brush the exposed pastry edge with the egg glaze. Bake for 20-25 mins until the pastry is crisp and golden brown. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately with the sour cream and relish.
