Chicken Strudel - the savory strudel is here !

Only in my "town". I called it strudel because it looks like a strudel, on the outside. But the inside...read on! I remember the biggest chicken pie I've eaten from Don Pie Club, SG; and it comes with eggs inside too! My chicken pie is not round (since it's a strudel), and stretches a length of about 25cm.
