I love The Great British Bake Off, and whenever it is on TV I get really inspired to bake! On one of the Comic Relief special episodes they had to make pork pies, and I decided to give them a whirl myself....I mean how hard could it be?
For the recipe I googled Paul Hollywood's pork pie recipe to follow. Click here to see the recipe I used. Unfortunately I was unable to get hold of Quails eggs, so this is not part of my pies.
Step 1- Making the Pastry
Step 2 - The Filling
Step 3 - Put it all together
Step 4 - Bake!
Step 5 - Eat
I have to be honest, I found it a lot harder than I thought. I think my pastry was too dry and I had to add more liquid to it as it was just crumbling when I attempted to put it into the baking tray. They turned out like little pies, instead of the kind of pork pie you get in a shop! Not 100% successful, but they were very yummy!
Maybe I will try again in the future, and hopefully get the pork pie I hoped for!
