Lemon and Lime Meringue Pie
This is very similar to a lemon meringue pie but needs half the work and effort. It’s a recipe my mum taught me which is perfect as she learnt it from her Kenwood recipe booklet and I wanted to test a Kenwood Chefette mixer for a review. It’s fairly easy to make even more so […]
Chicken, Bacon & Mushroom Pie – gluten free
This is one of those oh so easy dishes to make and another than can be made in bulk and frozen for when needed. The sauce in this is the same sauce as I made for my Chicken Lasagna, in fact I made this at the same time as I made the lasagna which meant […]
Deep Filled Beef & Ale Pie
I must admit, I love a good pie especially a deep filled pie with a shortcrust pastry bottom and a puff pastry top. Many of you don’t have the time to make pastry for a pie so this recipe uses shop bought pastry to make it really easy and less time consuming to make. I […]
Cod & Prawn Mornay
THIS is a real classic. You don’t see it on menu’s much anymore which is a shame as it is a really nice dish. If you have never heard of it then you really should give it a go, it is a great dish. The fish is cooked in a delicious cheese sauce and served with […]
Chicken & Smoked Bacon Slice
Comfort food doesn’t get much better than this, it is rich and creamy and tastes amazing. I made this today for a photoshoot. Mick, the photographer is known as a very picky eater who wouldn’t touch a pepper. He watched me make this while also taking photos of each step. When it was ready, he […]
Shepherd’s Pie
This is my take on a classic shepherd’s pie. I change the topping to make it quicker and easier to make for days when I am too busy to make a pot of mash, though if I am honest, I mainly do it to cut down on the washing up, which I hate doing. The […]
Chicken & Mushroom Pie
If you asked me to choose my favourite dish my response would be, Pie any pie. This comes from my mum who used to make the most amazing mince tart, which was my all time favourite. I’ve always made fantastic shortcrust pastry, a skill I learnt from my mum. To me, no other shortcrust pastry […]
Beef Curry Puff Pastry Slice
This is such a simple curry to make. I used curry powder to make it even easier on you to make at home. There is noting wrong with using a curry powder, some are great. I used Aldi’s medium curry powder to make this and was delighted with it. If you don’t want to make […]
Minced Beef and Onion Pie, Cashel Blue Infused Pastry
The Cashel Blue Cheese pastry in this pie takes it to a whole new level, it is hard to roll without it breaking but it is forgiving and can easily be patched together if needed. Everyone loves a nice pie, esp me as it brings back some great memories of when I was a kid […]
Seafood Pie (Gluten Free)
There is a twist to this seafood pie. This twist makes it easier and quicker to make and adds a new texture to the pie that makes it even better. Instead of topping it with mash or sliced potatoes, I grated them and mixed them with seasoning and a good amount of Swiss Gruyere cheese. […]
