First, cut/pull/chew most of the turkey meat off the carcass. Put the bones, some carrots, celery, onion, garlic, salt and pepper in a big pot, cover with water, then boil with the lid on for half a day.
Strain the mixture, throw out the chunky bits and put the liquid in the fridge until you are ready to make pie.
To make pie:
Fry chopped onion in a pan, push it to one side and melt some butter, add flour and cook till light brown. Throw in some chopped turkey, ham, grated carrot, corn kernels and anything else you fancy.
Scoop the fat off the top of the cold stock from the fridge chuck it out and add the fatless stock to your mixture. Let it boil until the liquid thickens to a nice pie filling consistency. Take off the stove and cool down.
Place a sheet of pastry in a pie dish (I used frozen puff pastry). Ladle in your cooled pie filling, add a pastry lid and cook until the pastry is nice and brown!
I made 4 pies, we ate one and froze the other 3 for later. Yummy!
