Turkey Pot Pie without Vegetables
Pastry
1  cup flour
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄3 cup shortening
1  tablespoon butter
1⁄4 cup  shredded cheddar cheese
2  tablespoons cold water
Filling
1  roasting chicken
1  celery rib
1  onion
9  tablespoons butter, divided
3 cups chicken broth
1⁄2 cup flour
12  ounces evaporated milk

 pepper

Mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening, butter and cheese till crumbs form. Add water and toss with a fork just until dough just forms a ball.
Turn onto lightly floured board. Press large chunks away with heel of hand. Gather and repeat. Shape into thick circle. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 30 minutes.

Cook onion and celery in 3 Tablespoons butter, until soft. Set aside.
Chop leftover turkey meat.
Melt remaining 6 Tablespoons butter. Add flour. Cook and stir until bubbly. Add broth and evaporated milk. Don't just dump all the liquids into the flour mixture--work in about 1/4 cup at a time until it is thinned out, and then you can increase how much liquid you can work in each time. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in turkey and celery and onion mixture. Put turkey filling in a round casserole dish.
Roll out dough, a little bigger than your dish so that you can have some dough to crimp. Place dough over turkey filling. Crimp edges.
Bake at 425 degrees for about 30-60 minutes or until crust is golden. If you check it and the edges of the pie are looking browned before the rest of it is ready, put foil over the edges -- just make like a long little tent and loosely attach over the edges.

Preheat oven to 425°.
Combine juice and cornstarch in a large bowl; stir well with a whisk. Add remaining ingredients; stir well. Pour mixture into prepared pan.
