TexTex's Meat & 'Tator Pie ππ²π¬π§
'Tator pies are usually made with minced beef in my neck of the woods, but I find corned beef a much tastier option.
The trick is to use the starches in the spuds to thicken the gravy, so don't add too much water, and don't overwork them into a mush by stirring too much
Ingredient
Food ration :
2 to 3 servingsCooking time :
1 hour
200 grams (7 ounces)
tinned corned beef
1 sheet
ready rolled shortcrust pastry
As needed
hot water
1-2
large onions
1-2 tablespoons
oil for shallow frying
3 tablespoons
Worcestershire sauce
To taste
Salt and pepper to season
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Cube the spuds. Quarter your onion, and slice
* Step 2
Cook the onions in a large saucepan with a little oil for about 5 minutes on a medium-low heat until they just begin to soften. Remove from the pan
* Step 3
Put the spuds in the saucepan and add hot water (just enough to cover). Crumble in the OXO cubes and add the Worcestershire sauce. Bring to the boil (uncovered). When it boils, turn down the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, but gently
* Step 4
Return the onions to the saucepan cook the spuds and onions for a further 10 minutes. Top up the pan with a little extra hot water every so often if it looks like it's going to boil dry
* Step 5
While the onions and spuds are cooking, chop your corned beef into tiny chunks about the size of sweetcorn. If you chill the corned beef in the fridge, it will slice much easier
* Step 6
Add the corned beef to the saucepan, stir, and cook for a further 5-10 minutes until the potatoes are cooked through. Allow to cool for about 35-40 minutes
* Step 7
Next, spoon the contents in to an oven proof pie dish. Fill as much as you can so the pastry doesn't sag when added
* Step 8
Preheat the oven to gas mark 6, 200Β°C (400Β°F)
* Step 9
Add the pastry on top, trim, brush with the egg wash, and pierce. When the first egg wash has dried, brush with the egg again, then season the pastry a little
* Step 10
Finally, pop in the middle of the oven for 25-30 minutes, (rotating 180Β° halfway through for an even bake) until the crust is nice and brown
* Step 11
Serve with pickled beetroot (beets) and/or pickled red cabbage
* Step 12
