Thank you very much for this bake as it is a welcomed one from sweets for a while... I know this will be a winner! How can it not?

HI Bill. Welcome. The long simmer helps to make the meat nice and tender. The cooling/chilling is so the filling doesn't start to melt the pastry as the pie is assembled.

How necessary is it to cook for 2 hours due to the rising cost of gas/electric?
@geoffsbakingblog2 жыл бұрын
Hi Bessie. The decision to cook for 2 hours is a personal preference. The longer, slow, cooking makes the minced beef more tender. But it can certainly be cooked for a shorter time, even just 1/2 an hour, just so long as the gravy has thickened enough.
