Hi Keef, it's Mike Florence the seafood chef down in Kent and I trust you and your good lady are well. OK, I make you The No Nonsense Curator of Traditional English Pies & Puddings. Thanks sooooo much for your test and cooking advice using this Pie Maker. Your Beef, Cheese & Onion Recipe just great. Using this machine, my only suggestion would be to glaze the pastry top and bottom with butter. Many thanks Keef for this really helpful video. Cheers, Mike.

I picked a pie maker like this up for £2.50 in a charity shop recently and I think it’s fab ! So much cheaper than putting the oven on for a couple of small pies. Also the instructions in mine say to cut a small triangle out of the side of the base pastry which seems to work to make it fit well.
@ronaldmartin78922 ай бұрын
The pies looked good and tasty. But that's due to your filling. Being a stick in the mud, I bake about twelve at a time to keep me going. The machine is too much buggering about for me. I'll stick to trad. A good video and I can smell those pies here in Thailand.👍👍

An extremely useful episode for me. I have looked at these on and off for some time, years and wondered. You have done me a big favour cos I like pies also. Please accept a penny from me with gratitude. :-)

Hi Keef this is Elaine 1of your subscribers or followers ( laugh) just thought I would say I have one of those pie making machine and I have had it for at least 20 yrs it is well used and the pies come out beautifully I have mixed egg and milk to glaze my pies and have never had a problem with them sticking thanks for the vid x Elaine ❤

. BTW - 250 ML is ONE American/Canadian cup. 😊 And your printed recipe calls for 250 Gm Beef which is 1/2 Lb.😊 . The Quest would be terrific as an electricity 'saving' device (going to need that).... Constructing the pies in in when COLD was brilliant. .

Yes Keef! Been using mine for about a year. Dead impressed. I glaze mine with egg wash and it doesn't go claggy. Get well soon! 🙂

I've had a pie maker machine for a few year's now, always found it very useful.. Great for meat or fruit pie's..
@nigelsouthworth55772 ай бұрын
Oh, lovely. Thanks Keef. I'm defo buying one of those. I think your method would be best. I too had my doubts but the pies look lush.
@Gravitational2342 ай бұрын
I have the deep filled one. Tip for that one: Construct cold but add hot filling and quickly put on lids, close, turn on. Speeds up cooking. Probably would work with the shallow pie maker too.

Well, 'eck, Keef! That Quest Double Pie Maker looks like a right gem! Minced beef and cheese, you say? Now you’re talkin’! Can’t beat a good pie, especially when it’s all crispy and golden, just like me mum used to make. Keef, mate, I reckon you’re onto somethin’ here. A double pie maker means you can whip up a couple of beauties at once-brilliant! The filling looked proper hearty, too; just the kind of comfort food we Yorkshire folk love, especially on a chilly day.

I’ve been making square pies in a “Breville” type sarnie toaster since the eighties. Just go to a charity shop and pick one up for a couple of quid.

I love my kitchen gadgets, so I might well try one of those. Not a huge expense, and if it doesn't work out it can go to the charity shop like the Red Copper 5 minute chef did!

They look delicious! I think it would be tricky to get such a crispy crust in an oven or air fryer.

@kath-phlox3 күн бұрын
I have one of those and it sits in the cupboard because I burned myself trying to assemble them when the machine had been preheated. I may try it again by using the same method you have and heat the machine once the pies are assembled... I'm curious how you got them out of the machine before they were cooked.

Hi Keef. Is there a gluten free version of pastry I can make pies from?
@Canalcoholic2 ай бұрын
Those pies look rather titchy, but I might be tempted if I ever spot one of those gadgets in a charity shop. I often have offcuts of pastry or pots of surplus pie filling lurking in the freezer.

Well, hold me hands up time here. I thought 'here we go...sponsored freebie pile of shit' time...but no, paid for! £20! so then i thought add another fiver and get a arse wiping machine....useless! Shock horror!! it looked good! perfect for my needs [ pie n mash] lol. Hopefully, you'll do another test with homemade pastry, i want that burnt top crust!
