5. Pour 100ml of milk into the hot pot filling now that the stock has reduced down by about 80%. Remove from the heat. Add the spinach leaves and allow to wilt down.

6. Take your pie dish and spoon in the chicken mixture. Level out neatly then layer the seasoned potatoes over the top so no gaps are visible. Sprinkle over a little more dried rosemary if desired..
