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.

DIY Chicken Scotch Eggs recipe

If there really has to be a reason for making Scotch Eggs we’ll probably have to blame the Chicken Sausages we were given rather than them being composted. But really if we’re honest Sue made them because (A) It’s fun. (B) She can!

Ingredients:-

Eggs Boiled with their shells removed.
The meal from Chicken Sausages.
Turmeric
Mixed Herb
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt
1 Egg, beaten
Salt & Pepper
Gluten Free Bread crumbs

Method:-

(1) While the Eggs cool strip the skins off the Sausages and season with a little Salt & Pepper.
(2) Add Garlic & Onion Salt and Turmeric the your Bread crumbs.
(3) Coat each Egg in a generous layer of season Sausage meat.
(4) Roll in the Egg wash and then in the Bread crumbs to coat.
(5) Place in a pre-heated oven at 180c for 30 minutes and turn after 15 minutes.

The Bread we used was yellow sticker Sour Dough at 25p a loaf. The Sausages were FOC and we’d made the Salad Cream a few nights earlier. So all we realistically paid full price for on the main plate was the Pea shoot salad, Cherry Tomatoes and a Spring Onion. Very tasty and remarkably filling for what looks like a light snack!
