Swineherds pie?

[PK99]

I'm not suggesting that pork shouldn't be used in a pie, just that using pork mince to emulate shepherds pie will result in a pitiful imitation.

I have got to say, i think that is nonsense.

I've got some pork left over from Sunday lunch and rather than stir fry it I was thinking of using it as a variation of shepherd's pie.

I've got a recipe called Monday Pie because it's intended to use up leftover beef from the Sunday roast. I don't cook a roast joint, so I make it with mince.

• 220g Potato
• 125g Mince, drained
• 133g Tinned tomatoes
• 70g Onion, finely chopped
• 140g Baked beans
• 40g Cheese
• 3g Flour
• 3g Bovril
• 0.4cc Pepper

• Parboil the potato 8mins
• Brown and drain the mince.
• Stir in tomato, beans, onion, flour, Bovril, pepper.
• Place in casserole, and cover with sliced potato.
• Bake 50mins @190
• Cover with cheese.
• Bake another 10mins.

Well I have to say https://food52.com/recipes/24091-confit-of-pork-parmentier and Monday Pie are likely to make it onto my menu for next week....

Is it legal to eat Monday Pie on a Thursday?


To corrupt Shepherds Pie even more, I do like it with minced Hogart / Hogert.
I have been known to make Tightwads Pie as i think it was quickly called with a bit of left over mince, Oxo Cubes and a mugful of pearl barley when I was feeling particularly parsimonious. I thought it was alright!
