It demonstrates how much of a rouge I can be when the need arises.

Did you wear your wifes makeup while eating that?

Spoiler: Mr Rouge

You would think that the big brand could manage to make a decent product. It's been a long time since I made* a pasty, but I seem to recall getting a good outcome from fairly modest ingredients. The filling was just potato, onion, seasoning and a tin of corned beef.

*I said made, not smashed.

yeah a lot of the companies just use the cheapest components when for a little more they could make a real product that could challenge the market. but its all down to percentages . a pasty is a cheap item to make.

I bloody love peppery coated mini fillets, they’re just so moreish and it’s genuinely hard to find a bad one in the supermarkets. The Asda ones being particularly close to the KFC ones.

I’m quite a fan of them myself! These ones were from Morrisons and were decent

Did you do the tandoori chicken yourself, if so any chance of a recipe?

I have been to the pub this evening and returned feeling peckish. Looked at this thread again and decided to go full "challenge accepted" mode:

Some ingredients:

Made too much filling, so ate the leftovers with the remains of the egg wash:

Finished pasties:

Yes, the recipe is from a book. I'll copy it out when I get home from work today.

It was too late to be messing about making pastry, so I used a roll of premade shortcrust. To be honest it was really too late to start making pasties at all, but it seemed like a good idea at the time.

 

[m@rty]

Never too late for some pasty
