Steak and kidney pie. The filling was my best work yet and has completely converted my steak and kidney hating son. The pastry was ok but not sterling. Using flat iron steak (chuck steak to those of us old enough not to be fooled by a rebrand) rather than bog standard stewing steak was worth every penny.

Will do a cobbler top next time, yes yes I said cobbler not gobbler. Made apple crumble for pud but peeps are to full for that at the moment. Small amount of mash for me as the pie was plenty enough on it’s own.

We're getting an Indian tonight neither of us can be bothered to cook

Came close to getting a takeaway but there was some ox cheek and ox tail shouting at me from the meat counter so had to do it justice.

Served it with a creme fraiche sauce I soured with some fresh lemon and flavoured with super strong horseradish to cut through the richness. Baked some bread (no pic soz) and rolled out the carpet with some lovely unpasteurised Normandy butter.

I’m thinking my demented mother might enjoy it, it has that old school thing going on, I can imagine her mum making it for her. 

Although probably good and bland without the sweet smoked paprika, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce and honey 😂

It’s pretty traditional really. Just the sweet and sour of old like cider vinegar and salt is balsamic and soy.  You can’t pick up on it, its just better at making meat taste meatier. More unami.
