No not a name for a Rock band. Although there is a Folk band called Beans OnToast.
Dear old wifey went through her mental cook box and came up with an old favourite last Tuesday.
Homemade meat and potato pie. Often something served at a Do up North.
Great when you have had a belly of ale especially if you eat the red cabbage accompaniment.😊

What I had for my tea kind of blog post!
We often stop at petrol stations for something to eat. I send wifey in and she comes back with a chicken and mushroom or curry pie- unbelievable!
Who comes up with these pie recipes? Not forgetting that flaky pastry what I cover my trousers and shake outside like I have had a Dandruff attack.
Oh how I miss pasty and pie shops and chip shops like you get in Blighty.
We have to do the next best thing and make our own.
Mrs northsider's probably taste a whole lot better than shop bought, I bet.
ReplyDeleteThere's no Sweeney Todd pies on the Irish Riviera JayCee. It's worth a trip to Blighty for the real ales and the pies.

Hi Sol. Thanks I will look at that tonight. Hope you're well?
DeleteDoes that substantial pie figure in "The Northsider Diet" for slimmers? Well done to your missus. I hope you remembered to say "thank you".
ReplyDeleteI always say thank you YP. We were in Iceland yesterday and there were Hollands pies and Vimto. I also bought some bottles of Newcastle Brown Ale in a off licence. It was like being in Blighty.
DeleteDid you see some hot springs and geysirs?
DeleteI saw Bjork pushing her shopping 🛒.
DeleteI just made a meat and potato pie with leftover Easter lamb. Really good. Hate it when K east cheese pies in the car. Flaky pastry flakes everywhere, just like dandruff . And then who has to clean up? Not him
ReplyDeleteI hate flaky pastry Linda. Horrible stuff.
ReplyDeleteNot related but I'd love to know how your rhubarb and elderflower wine turned out?
ReplyDeleteNot me Suzanne. Try Ben's Adventure In Winemaking on my blog list. Ben knows everything about the subject.
ReplyDeleteI'm having thoughts of making my own pie on the coming weekend, but there will be no pastry involved, it will be a Shepherd's Pie or what some call a Cottage Pie. It must be at least a decade since I made one.
ReplyDeleteWe often have homemade Shepherds Pie for tea River. I think Cottage Pie is made with beef mince and Shepherds Pie is made with lamb mince. We make it with beef but still call it Shepherds Pie. It always goes down well and it's not expensive to make.
ReplyDeleteAlways beef here, I hate lamb.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind lamb mince but not keen on mutton.
