[@glenissharman9758]

This is one of my favorites, Mr Paul, Mum taught me to make this 50 years ago, I personally prefer it cold, but with veg and a little gravy it's a perfect filling meal. Thank you.

[@jasonredshaw71]

Lovely pie Paul, definitely a fan

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Yes, I think this is one of my favourite pie recipes and one of the easiest to make too.

[@rhiannonjones2006]

Iv been making these for years the only difference is I cook my onions with my potatoes only because I like that but they taste amazing. Your the best Mr Paul. My dear old mum taught me these years ago and still a favourite ❤

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Thanks for sharing that with us Rhiannon. I can't remember why we did it that way in the bakery, it's such a long tome ago, but there must have been a reason!

[@carolinerebornknight]

I've made this twice now since coming across your recipe and the pie freezes well too - thank you

I’ve at last sourced some fresh corned beef here in Thailand so will soon be making this delicious pie.

[@brianartillery]

Nice to see someone who isn't afraid of lard! I was taught to cook at school, back in the 1970's, and shortcrust pastry was made with butter and lard. And I find rubbing in to be rather therapeutic, to be honest. I'm amused by the number of modern cooks who don't like doing it.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hello Brian, as my family were Pork Butchers I think lard must be in my blood. As a professional baker we only added butter for flavour as it's quite a poor shortener for pastry. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment, I do appreciate that. For more of my recipes go to my website at : mr-pauls-pantry.com/

[@allenbrown8158]

a great pie mr paul. we sweat our onion in a bit of butter to take the harshness off we also add some grated cheder to ours, its lovely. and sometimes some chilli powder for a hot version, it works well.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Use a sweet onion instead Allen. I use raw onion to give some texture otherwise it's very mushy.

[@nige13]

I make something very similar every New Years Eve, we call it a Wigan Pie 🙂and serve it with mashed carrots and suede and pickled red cabbage and been eating this for over 50yrs! 🙂We dont put a crust on the bottom though just the top. Putting oxo in is also amazing too and cube the potaoeas not mashing them.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Yes this really was a winner in my bakeries both in the UK and also here in Spain.

[@mrboat580]

Pie dough and custards were the basics my mom taught me as a boy. We were just always with her so we just paid attention. When I got older, I discovered how many deserts are essentially a custard base. Homemade pie dough is the one thing people just don't do much anymore. I am the only one I know in my circles that does. Taught my sons how. I end up practicing a bit with it before the holidays so that I have it right, when it counts the most.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Someone after my own heart, I got so used to getting everything perfect in the bakery, I still discard things even now 60 years on when just baking for myself.

[@GolDreadLocks]

Hello Mr. Paul! 3 questions- 1 -did you sift the flour? 2 - here we have either red, white or yellow potatoes, which would be best,? and 3 - would this pastry be good for chicken/ beef pot pie? This looks delicious! Thank you for another wonderful video/ recipe!

[@MrPaulsPantry]

1. NO I never sift flour except for a fatless sponge cake. 2. It's nothing to do with the colour, it's the amount of starch. If a potato is good for baking in it's jacket then that's what you need. Waxy potatoes do not mash well. 3. Yes, this pastry is good for any pies. Hope this helps. Stay safe. P.S. I think Yukon Gold are OK for mashing.

[@GolDreadLocks]

@@MrPaulsPantry Perfect! Thank you, and please keep well/safe! Looking forward to the next one!

[@MikeJones-zt3kb]

Hi MR.PAUL, I've made this pie many times now, always a family meal favourite for the working evening meal, I've learned to make a bigger version in an inch deep 10x8" tin if we've extras joining us as a family, an unnamed member of my family who cooks lots (or so he says) mentioned if I blind bake the pastry I can add the hot pie mixture straight away, I'm very sceptical about this and would value your experience and professional guidance. Mike

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Your friend has the problem many budding bakers have NO PATIENCE. Making a pie requires a lid and if you blind bake the pastry case, getting the lid to stick on will be a hit & miss affair. In the bakery we only blind baked tart cases (no lid) when the filling was very wet, however if you tart is 6 inches or less it's not necessary to blind bake. Hope this helps.

[@MikeJones-zt3kb]

Hi MR.PAUL, Made your corn beef pie again today one of your everyday classics our family enjoy as a look forward too mid-working week meal, can I ask a question about pastry, I've found it easier to make larger baches and freeze half for another day, I've found it works well, I've been told you need to over cook pastry that has been frozen, I do leave it in the fridge to defrost before going to work and give it time to slightly warm at room temperature before ususing, but friends tell me you have to over bake pastry that has been frozen, I can't see why. Hope you might be able to help. Mike, Abergele, North Wales

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Mike, the myth comes from these so called celebrity chefs and some frozen food manufacturers telling you to bake from frozen. I always recommend making a batch of pastry and freezing half. In the bakery we always had some in the freezer and lifted it into the fridge before we went home, that way we had something to start with at 4.30am the next morning. What you're doing Mike is exactly correct, ignore the barrack room experts.

[@luckykazivlog8782]

[@roncooke2188]

Nice video interesting and helpful, is the pastry any better with an egg yolk mixed in?

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Ron, most of my recipes are the ones we used in my bakeries both in the UK and here in Spain and we never added eggs to any of our pastry recipes so I really can't say, sorry.

Hi John, I think the tin I used in that video was 20 cm that's the usual size foe a plate pie. But you can use a different size depending how deep you like the filling.

[@gcarson19]

Mr. Paul, I have a question. What are the criteria for using a shortcrust pastry versus a hot water crust pastry? Is it just tradition, or is there a functional reason? Is it ever acceptable to substitute one for the other?

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Garret, in my bakery we usually only used Hot Water paste for our Pork Pies, etc, that were high sided and usually eaten cold, this is because hot water crust is less likely to crumble when cut or the pie is eaten by hand. Now I'm retired, I sometime make hot water crust for anything if I'm short o time as it's quick . Hope this helps

[@gcarson19]

@Mr. Paul's Pantry Yes, thanks. I love eating cold pie, even fruit pies. I'm going to try a hot water paste cherry pie just to see how it goes. Thanks again for your response and for your videos, I've learned a lot.

[@TheGreyGardener1990]

Whats the reason for not blind baking the pastry first? Thanks

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Adam, it's only necessary to blind bake when the filling is very liquid such as custard tarts etc. It prevents air pushing the pastry up through the liquid filling. In the bakery we never blind bake pies. Hope this helps. I wish you a very Happy & Healthy New Year Adam.

Hi Mr Paul all of your pies and pasties I would love to make but I want to ask first what they freeze and that goes for all of them maybe you can contact me ASAP thank you very much

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Yes Elaine, you can freeze them cooked or uncooked, always wrap in plastic wrap excluding as much air as possible. When thawing out cooked pies, DO NOT remove the plastic wrap, because any condensation will form on the outside of the wrapping, if you remove it the condensation will form on the pastry making it soft. Rremember to thaw in the fridge overnight, that's most important. You can't freeze anything with cooked eggs such as custard tarts, scotch eggs, etc. as the egg will come out very rubbery. I hope this helps. if not do get back to me.

Probably a god idea, although I've not done it myself. The reason your Bisto clumps is because it contains fat and the melt in the heat and mixes with the starch.
