Classic Mince Beef and Oven Roasted Potato Pie

[@wwsuwannee7993]

Plain homemade food that is made with care, hands down beats all, no competition. Good one Rik.

[@BackyardChef]

Agreed all round there mate! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@joycegemmill8557]

Thank you good home madre cooking

[@lilliankeane5731]

Yep, exactly pure home-cooking that is made with love … is always flavoursome and stands out from loveless bought pies. 😊

[@anonscot98]

So much more healthier as well, take away foods are cancerous.

[@PeterPeadar]

Super idea to roast the potatoes! Perhaps roasted carrots and onions would add even more flavor. ❤

[@BackyardChef]

Great idea. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@Ruby-K]

Thinking the same or fry the carrots and celery with the onions and garlic to release their flavours and slightly caramelise before adding the beef.

[@Katalinmason]

That’s what I would try. Love roasted vegetables 😊

[@nandldecorating1223]

Me too, roasted in Beef Dripping mmmmmm

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

Adding caramelised onion would do it for me.

[@PercyChips]

I love this channel. Simple no nonsense good home cooking with normal ingredients and methods your average person uses.

[@BackyardChef]

Agreed that is what this channel is all about - every recipe works, everyone can make it. It's all down to taste. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@PercyChips]

@@BackyardChef Love that it's always OXO cubes etc, not a 15 minute extra segment on roasting beef bones and making the perfect stock. Fun to do sometimes, but OXO is real life!

[@jennyt966]

That's one delicious pie. Roasting the potatoes sounds like a brilliant idea. I can't wait to try this pie. Thanks, Rik.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. It makes a huge difference on flavour and texture. Best, Rik

[@Sharon-bo2se]

Can't go wrong with roasted veg, esp. potatoes and carrots. They add better texture and more flavour. I like the liners for pans, hate when things get stuck and break of.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@JeanLarkin-j4n]

Rik, I'm starving! That looks absolutely fantastic.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@davidmurphy816]

Another superb looking Pie Rik, fantastic idea to add roasted potatoes so much more flavour & they’ll retain their texture to chow down on without turning to mush - you clever man!👌 Definitely one that I’d like to try making, my mouth’s watering once again watching you get tucked in!😋 Definitely a nice big dollop of HP for me for the final flourish … YUM! As always, thanks for sharing Rik. xx 👨🏼‍🍳🥧👌🥰

Oh man! Another pie! Thanks for the repeat of the paper liner… and how interesting to do roasted potatoes.. I cant use beef but I have minced lamb.. and it will be delightful I am sure! I just cant wait to make a pie… because I love pastry too! ❤ Oh come on! I am drooling Rik! 😂

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Appreciated. Lamb works well just watch the amount of oil. No soggy bottom pastry! Best, Rik

[@quantumbacon]

Hi Rik, had to mention one technique I've used for decades with those spring form tins. Separate the tin into 2 sections, place parchment over the base, tighten the spring form onto the base with the parchment trapped in between. Trim off excess. 100% coverage, maybe not as pretty.

[@BackyardChef]

Yes done it myself many times when rushing in the restaurant. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@lilliankeane5731]

I believe they same as you Rik, introduce flavour in every step you can, one can’t expect to get flavour out , if … they are not putting the flavour in ! We have the same ethos on flavouring 🙌🏼👍🏼.

[@BackyardChef]

Yes exactly! Appreciated. Thank You. Best, Rik

[@megfreeth4377]

Yay, Rik. It's great to see Hendos! I'm from Sheffield, the maker of Hendos!

Very pleased to see a recipe for this as I mentioned it in passing when viewing and commenting on one of your other videos that I would like to see an example of this. Thank you for this recipe, I like the twist for the potatoes. I will try this out as soon as I can. Having now purchased the same air fryer oven as yourself, would it be possible to show what can be done with the rotisserie as I am wondering how a joint of beef would come out or other uses for it.

I so enjoy watching you make British foods… that’s a partial lie, I enjoy watching you cook ALL the cuisines that you do, but many of your British recipes I scribble down to give them a future try. My mom came from England so I grew up with some favorites dishes from “across the pond”. She passed away when I was a young adult and I never got the chance to ask for her recipes. I absolutely love a Scotch Egg. The best I ever had was at a restaurant in Quebec City, Montreal where they made them using duck eggs with a wonderful homemade sausage. Have you done a Scotch Egg on your channel yet? If not, would you consider giving a lesson on making those at home? I would love that!

[@BackyardChef]

Yes I have - on the channel a couple of years ago a quick search will bring it up. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@wolfman011000]

I par cook the potatoes in the microwave, allow them to cool, cut to the size I like and then deep fry them in lard/sunflour oil 50/50 blend. One common cheat I use is deep fry the cheap own brand chips (not French fries) dice them and add to the recipes. When frying mince for a filling I fry the onions first, remove them from the pan, then return them to the pan later. Then hard fry the mince in the onion flavoured oil to a toasted brown not a grey insipid colour. The method I like is to make a burger in effect. Press the patty into the pan to get the browning both sides, like a smash burger before using a potato masher to break it up back to mince crumbles. Takes more time and effort but with abit of planning not much, cooking each ingredient to its best, then combining allowing for further cooking so vegetable do not turn to mush for example. Letting the filling sit in the chiller overnight helps meld the flavours, we did this in the kitchens I worked in when I was young and is the main reason pub/restaurant pie/stews etc taste better than most IMHO.

Sounds good! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@m53goldsmith]

Love this type of pie, but I roast the onions along with the potatoes and then saute the aromatics and the meat together, then assemble. Also, with a springform pan like this, just take out the bottom, trace it on the paper and cut just inside the lines for a perfect fit.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik
