    Well made some with basic pork seasoning,using mace n ginger n salt n pepper.
    Let the pastry rest in the fridge overnight once i had hand formed the pies.
    Glazed with beaten egg,then hot oven(gas 7) for 15 mins to set pastry ,then lower oven(gas 4) to cook meat for 30 mins,lower shelf.
    Then cool on wire rack .

    This one works well. Only made it once as it’s a lot of effort, but results are fabulous.

    I made a 10 inch pork pie for a mates birthday a couple of years ago, he’s a pork pie addict!

    I used the Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall recipe

    my trial 8 inch pie came out well, getting a good seal and getting the stock in to set as jelly is the most difficult bit I found, but I managed it second time round ok.

    really nice but a lot of effort I have to say.

    I’ve made a couple, as has been mentioned, it’s a lot of work and I’ve not got the meat texture right. They’ve not been a patch on ones you find at farmer’s markets or quality butchers.

    Cheers
