Okay, so I talk about being Cornish but it’s taken me almost two years to post one of the most traditional recipes – Pasty Pie. Using a Falcon tin as opposed to making inividiual pasties also prevented me from putting my terrible crimping skills on display.

Good hot or cold – hello lunchbox! – this recipe is simple and I hope a winner. Basically, use skirt steak, super finely chipped potatoes and swede plus some chopped onion a very generous amount of seasoning a few daubs of butter on the top and you are good to go.

Check out Delia’s recipe for exact measures. I treated us to her lard pastry. What can I say, it gets cold in the shop sometimes.

Hello lard-based pastry.
