Swineherd Pie recipe!

Swineherd Pie recipeYou've heard of Cottage Pie and Shepherds Pie? Well our take on it is Swineherd Pie, mainly because minced Pork is generally cheaper....
 
Ingredients:-
 
500g of minced Pork
2 large Onions, finely chopped
Soy Sauce (GF if required)
2 Carrots, finely chopped
Potatoes, boiled and mashed
Gravy Granules (Bisto Best are GF)
Cheese, grated to top
Vegetables of your choice
 
Method:-
 
(1) Heat a little oil in a large pan. Add the pork and fry to brown all over, stirring to break up any large chunks. Set aside.
(2) Add a splash more oil to the pan, Carrot and Onion and fry until the Onion is softened.
(3) Mix the Gravy Granules with boiling water to make sufficient to moisten the mince in a casserole dish.
(4) Preheat the oven to 180c.
(5) Add the mince to the Onions and Carrot and stir in the gravy and a good dash of Soy Sauce.
(6) Transfer to a large casserole dish and add the mashed Potato to the top to cover.
(7) Place the casserole in the oven uncovered for 30 minutes or until the Potato has a golden brown top.
(8) Sprinkle with grated Cheese and place back in the oven until the Cheese has melted and crisped a little.
 
We enjoyed ours with Carrots and Savoy Cabbage.

We had a wander up to the Continental Shop a few days ago. We’d had the idea of Stuffed Jalapeños floating about for a while. When we spotted these monsters it had to be done. Hot – hot – hot!

Cream Cheese with Garlic & Herbs
Grated Mozzarella
Flour (Gluten free in our case)
Eggs & Milk (For an Egg wash)
Breadcrumbs (Gluten free in our case)
Oregano
Chilli Flakes
Oil
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) Blanch the Jalapeños, slit and de-seed. Set aside.
(2) Mix an Egg wash with Eggs and Milk and set aside.
(3) Combine the Cream Cheese, Mozzarella, Oregano, Chilli Flake, Salt and pepper – To make the stuffing.
(4) Stuffed the Jalapeños.
(5) Dunk each one in the Egg wash, then dredge in flour.
(6) Dunk again in Egg wash and then roll in the Breadcrumbs.
(7) Shallow fry turning occasionally until the coating is crispy.

We served ours on a bed of salad with Potato wedges and a home made Marie Rose sauce.
