Meat & Potato Pie

[@jasonredshaw71]

Hi Mr Paul. Jason here. I am sat in my kitchen watching your you tube videos, cos my Labrador has stolen and eaten a frozen shepherd’s pie that was in a plastic takeaway container. She has eaten the lot,including the container.She is now in emergency surgery. I’m waiting to hear if she’s gonna be ok. She’s my baby and I’m in bits. However your videos are keeping my mind off things

[@MrPaulsPantry]

I'm very sorry to hear that, I know exactly how you feel. I have rescue dogs and they were all starving to death when I found them and they stole and ate absolutely everything in sight. Fortunately the have now settled down to eat normally. I wish your baby well Jason.

I am from Manchester, the city that is the home of the meat & potato pie and I used to wolf them down from the chippie when I was young. As you say, the machine-made pies are now almost entirely potato with hardly any meat, so I started making my own. I will try your version soon.

[@stephenhope7319]

I am from Manchester too, used to come home from school and have a meat and potato pie from local bakery. I have been making good pies for the last 42 years here in Sacramento, Ca and family love them. Thanks the Bee City, Manchester.

[@donnavorce8856]

You're looking very well Mr Paul. I hope you're feeling tip top. Thank you for the latest recipe. Cheers

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Yes, thank you Donna, I'm slowly on the mend, not quite 100% yet, not sure I will ever be at my age but I'll keep trying. Many thanks for watching.

[@davidfoster959]

Hi Paul, You’ve given us another gem with this one. For my first attempt all of your key hints worked. No soggy bottom, absolutely right texture, firm not runny, and extraordinary nice flavour. Thank you. David and Angela

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hello David, Thanks for the feedback, I like to hear of the successes, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. Give my regards to Angela.

You can’t beat a nice homemade pie.

[@muffinmarie01]

It's wonderful to see you looking so well.I hope all that unpleasantness is behind you and just good health from here on out . I finally purchased a scale and what a difference in measurements. I also bought a temperature gage for my oven and found out it was 50 degrees off. Now that I have started using both I can't believe what an improvement there is in my cooking and especially the baking. Thank you for all the helpful information you have provided. 🥰

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Thank you Susan, I'm very pleased you took my advice with the scale and oven thermometer. Thanks for watching.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hello Snowpony001, Many thanks for watching and also fo subscribing too, I really do appreciate it.

[@buddyboy4x44]

I love how your videos explain "techniques" which I did not always know. Using the back of the knife to cut the pastry edge. Part cook the potatoes in the first stage. Cool meat mixture completely. Great tips. I was disappointed I could not savour the flavour like you did at the end but will correct that when I make it myself. I was hoping to see a video of the making of your short crust pastry; the link goes to a printed recipe only. Great video though, thank you.

[@166sue]

Looks tasty, I will making this for our tea tonight thank you

[@MrPaulsPantry]

You are so welcome Sharon. Thank you for watching.

[@grahamturner5963]

Hi Mr Paul. I love a good pie. Too many times in the past I've bought ones that were more pastry than filling or found that the main ingredient (chicken, beef etc.) was almost non-existent compared to veg or spud. A recent rib roast yielded plenty of seconds so I mixed up some veg and gravy and made individual shortcrust pies and puff pastry slices 😃

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Sounds wonderful Graham, pity I'm so far away otherwise I could have helped you get rid of a few!!!

[@margaretrobinson1670]

They look delicious.🤤👍

Tha can't beat a good meyt and tayter pie mr paul. I make a great meyt and tayter pie that i watched my grandmother and her sister make year's ago and their pastry was just lard, plain flour, salt and water and I've still got their old mixing bowls and pie dishes that's donkey's year's old naar and I'm 50 so that'll gi thi an idea mi owd cocker. I've subscribed and greetings from a fellow yorkshire man from a cold but sunny south yorkshire 👍🍻

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Philip. Thank you for your very interesting comment. I personally always use lard only in my pastry, however, I have encourage people tp try these old tried and tested recipe that I used in my bakery both in the UK and also here in Spain. Although I'm originally from Leeds, before I came to liver here in Granada and open my bakery 25 years ago, my late wife and I lived in Gt, Houghton, Nr. Barnsley, I'm approaching 80 and still use many of the old baking tins I started my first bakery with 60+ years ago. Lovely to hear from you Philip. Look afta thee sen.

[@aviationaviation1032]

Paul, how can I increase the gravy in the pie without going soggy at the bottom.

[@fionasmyth4303]

Hello Paul. Have been following your recipes for a while yet and not been disappointed. I was wondering. I believe you are now living in Spain. If this is the case can l ask where do you buy your lard from. I haven't managed to source it here yet.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Mercadona, Consum supermarkets all sell it. Its called Manteca de Cerdo and it's packed in a plastic square tub.

[@betsyacosta6773]

Hi Mr Paul. I just discovered you! I am enjoying your videos very much. I'm an American but have been trying my hand at hand pies. I am working on this recipe right now but it seems your meat as it is stewing is more , how do I say it, liquid? Mine seems thick at this point before adding potatoes. Where did I go wrong?? Lol. Going to continue and we shall see what it turns out like tomorrow 😲😲😲😁

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Betsy, it sounds like you have had the heat a little too high and the liquid has evaporated. Best if you keep an eye on it during the cooking and if necessary and a little more water. All meat is different and some take longer to cook than others. Do please let me know how it tastes..

[@betsyacosta6773]

@@MrPaulsPantry I redid it with a meat that had a bit more fat to it, turned down the heat and it was Amazing!! I can't believe I made it haha no one in my family can either. Your videos are wonderful and if you follow your recipe food will turn out good 😁 Thank you for the advice.

It seems your favourites are my favourites. I love pies, Nothing makes me happier than pie for dinner, so I'll be donning the pinny and getting started.

Hi Gemini, Pies are my absolute favourite, I think it's because as a child travelling with my parents and all cooking done on the fire out in the open we never had pies (no oven). I've made for it since though.
