Ohh not had a pie in months, that looks good.
^^^ I feel honoured PAG, thank you!
They look delicious.
I have never added an egg to pastry to bind it together, just the cold water. Do you think it helps?
No, I roll out into a rough circle, the use an 8" side plate and trim around. The trimmed dough I use to made the pie top.Quote:

This is the recipe that I use, though now I don't go exactly on the amount of cold water, just add a little at a time until I get the consistency of dough that I'm looking for, not too dry or too wet and sticky.Quote:

Delusherous.
^^ I'll be making a steak and kidney pie at the weekend for the daughter's birthday. I may just try an egg in the pastry for an extra treat!
^ Is that the last of Looper's FPS as well?
Today the wife knocked up a larb moo for my lunch. This is my favourite and after sixteen wonderful years of marriage I had no idea she could make a decent larb moo. Usually the gardener does this kind of thing.

I wonder what else I'll discover as we make our journey through life together?
Where's the chilli or spice?
Lamb isn't normally very spicy and I think Mendy has said before that he isn't a big fan of the old morning ring sting so won't be reaching for the prik nam pla. :)Quote:

Continuing on the surprising theme of Mendip culinary inspiration, lunch today shall be tuna and potato cakes/patties.
While his salmon version does look superb.

I couldn't help but notice that the internet version, while not as professional looking, also looks quite good.

Added paprika and oregano.

Was a bit thin.

So ended up thickening her out a bit with some panko-style breadcrumbs.
Speaking of which.
Sir Mendo says coat with full sized breadcrumbs, the internet say panko style breadcrumbs.
So without wanting to insult either Mendo or the internet, I shall do some in both styles as testers.
Into the fridge while hitting the gym.
To be continued....
Sounds interesting - get on with, I'm hungry... :)
One minute, one minute.
Octordle Rescue isn't gonna rescue itself ya know.
In the name of science I did both styles.
The internet Vrs Bendy-Mendy.
Removed from the fridge, did thin patties as to cook through without burning.

The verdict:
I'll give it to Bendy-Mendy. Not only good inspiration, but his style is the clear winner. :yup: :tumbs:
Take it like a man, internet.
plain chickpeas ffs, you should have mashed them and added to the fishcake
Lime juice, salt and cracked pepper. :yup:Quote:

Love the plate.
Chick peas??? Like peas, but worse (and peas are really horrible...).
^^^^
Look good, though I'm not a fan of Panko breadcrumbs, too large and hard. Turning the chickpeas into hummus would have been good, maybe stuffed in some pita bread along with the fishcakes.
