I do make Shepherds pie but that's not really pie pie.

Cos its potato topped rather than pastry?

Real pie must be fully encased in pastry.
All other pies are impostors and unworthy to bear the name.
This shit makes me really angry


Especially when people challenge me and demand to know why shepherd's pie, fish pie, key lime pie and other such aberrations should be called.
I don't know, it's not my first language. You invent some bloody words instead of misusing the existing ones

 

[Thimble Queen]

I think shepherds pie is real pie and I like it.

A no-brainer: THE best pie has a layer of strawberries and rhubarb sitting atop a layer of firm custard flavoured with vanilla and rum and covered with a buttery streusel.

Chestnut Bourgignon Pie is one of my favourites, and quicker to make if you use vac-packed chestnuts.

That sounds amazing!

Someone gave us a gift basket last Xmas that had a can of unsweetened paté des marrons in it. I bet this could be adapted to make use of it.

It's a great recipe, very rich and filling plus easy to adapt e.g. with types of mushrooms. Coincidentally I'd found it on the BBC website when looking for ideas for some vac-packed chestnuts that I'd bought then subsequently mentioned it on a veggie thread, and someone linked me to the urban wiki where it was also posted - so it's been tested by at least a couple of people here.

Part of the appeal is the flavour and texture/bite of the whole chestnuts soaking up the juice ... can you tell from the can whether your paté is confit or purée? Even if the latter, I'm guessing that you could play with the liquid ingredients & reduce for longer?

I made a pork and cider pie a few weeks ago, that was in my own humble opinion, ace.

 

[Riklet]

Chicken and brie mmmmm fucking drool.

In regards to the sweet 'uns... apple and blackberry can be rather lovely, or just deliciously tangy cinnamon with apple...

 

[the button]

I had venison & ale (Theakston's Old Peculier, to be exact) pie for tea tonight, and it was fucking lovely.
