Pussy Pie
|
Pussy Pie This evening it was my turn to cook the dinner. Jess and I decided that it was going to be Pussy Pie. Ingredients as follows: Cheese or Squirty processed cheese. One tin of beef and onion pie filling. (Serves 4) Some nice ripe juicy tomatos. Lard, roughly 100-200g depending on how fatty you like the pastry. Plain flour for pastry A pinch of salt I blended the lard, (Pig fat) with the flour and the salt to make a nice big fat lump of pastry dough. This I divided into two lumps, one for the base of the pie and one for the lid. I also added a bit of water and oil to make the pastry easier to roll. I rolled one lump flat and used it to line a pastry dish. This I baked for 15min in the oven until crisp. Some say it's a good idea to prick the base to stop it rising. I do this but it rarely has any effect, who gives a toss anyway? This is real home cooking. Next I filled the pie with the beef and onion mix, topping it off with chopped tomatos and cheese. Finally I roll the pie top pastry and lay it on top, crimping the dough into the edges in an attempt at a seal. When this is done I trim the outer edges of the dough and use this to make a pastry cat shape to sit on the top of the pie. Glaze with milk which helps smooth the cracks, add a bit of egg for a shine. Cook until golden and brown. No pussy was harmed in the making of this pie, I'd have made the dough into the shape of a cow but I'm not that artistic.  Don't ever give up searching for the fun in life. |
