CORNED BEEF AND ONION PIE

Steps:

• Preparation method
• For the filling, melt the butter with the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the onion, celery, carrots and potatoes. Cook over a low heat for about 15 minutes until the vegetables are softened and beginning to colour, stirring regularly. The carrots should retain a little bite.
• Add the ketchup and stir into the vegetables for a few seconds before adding the corned beef. Break the beef into chunky pieces with a wooden spoon and mix with the vegetables.
• Season with pepper – you shouldn’t need salt as the corned beef is fairly salty – and remove from the heat. Leave to cool for about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5.
• To make the pastry, put the flour, salt and butter in a food processor and pulse until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
• Lightly whisk the egg with a tablespoon of cold water in a small bowl. Slowly pour all but one tablespoon of the egg mixture into the food processor with the motor running and blend until the mixture begins to form a ball.
• Turn the pastry out onto a well-floured work surface and bring it together into a ball. Take about a third of the pastry, roll it out and use it to line a 23cm/9in pie plate or 20cm/8in round ceramic quiche dish or deep Victoria sandwich tin. Leave any excess pastry overhanging the edge. Brush the pastry edge lightly with the reserved egg.
• Spoon the filling into the pastry base and spread it out evenly. Flour the surface once more and roll out the remaining pastry. Lift the rolled pastry over the rolling pin and place gently over the filling. Press the edges firmly together then trim neatly. Seal the edge with a fork.
• Brush the top of the pastry with the remaining beaten egg, cut a cross in the centre of the pie and place onto a baking tray. Bake for about 40 minutes or until the pastry is golden-brown and the filling is piping hot

CORNED BEEF AND POTATO PIE

Steps:

• Grease 20cm by 20cm pie tin and preheat the oven to 180°C. Sift the flour into a bowl, add the salt, add the butter and lard, cut up and rub into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add very cold water, bit by bit, mixing with a knife, then bring it together with your hands till the pastry forms a ball, try not to add too much water, just enough. Cover in cling film and chill.
• Peel and chop the potatoes, put them in a large pan of water, add the vegetable stock cube and boil until tender, for approximately 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and mash, add the knob of butter and plenty of salt and pepper, and the crumbled oxo cube and mix it all together.
• Saute the onions in the knob of butter until soft and then stir into the mashed potato. Chop the corned beef into small squares and stir it into the potato mix with a fork till all combined well. Take the pastry from the fridge and let it rest for five minutes before rolling it out. Roll out just over half of the pastry on a floured surface and line the bottom of the tin with it. (Roll out the remaining pastry for the top of the pie and leave to one side).
• Fill the pie with the potato and corned beef mixture. Wet the edge of the pie dish, lay on the lid, and with a sharp knife trim the pastry from around the pie. Knock up the sides of the pastry, press around the edge with a fork and crimp the edge of the pie with your fingers.
• Make slits in the top of the pie for the steam to escape. Make some pastry leaves with the spare pastry and decorate the pie. Brush the top of the pie with milk. Place the pie in the middle of the oven for about 40 minutes, but check after 30 minutes.

CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE SHEPHERD'S PIE

Steps:

• Put corned beef in a pot with onion and celery and sprinkle spice packet over top. Pour in cold water to cover. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil. Skim off and discard any foam if desired. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently until tender, about 3 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Carefully remove corned beef to a bowl and let cool. Taste broth and add salt if needed.
• Bring broth to a boil over high heat. Add cabbage to the boiling broth. Cook until cabbage just starts to soften and sweeten up, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon and remove cabbage to a bowl.
• Add carrots to the boiling broth. Cook until carrots start to soften, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon and remove carrots to a bowl.
• Add potatoes to the boiling broth and reduce heat to medium. Cook until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, slice the cooled corned beef along the fatty seam to separate into 2 pieces. Identify the direction of the meat fibers and cut across them (against the grain) to slice into 1/4-inch thick slices, trimming off and discarding any giant pieces of fat. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a 9x15-inch casserole dish.
• Use a slotted spoon and remove cooked potatoes to a bowl. Reserve broth. Add butter, salt, pepper, cayenne, and milk to the potatoes. Mix and mash until very smooth. Toss in 3/4 cup Cheddar cheese and mix until incorporated.
• Pour cabbage into the prepared casserole dish and press on it until nicely compacted. Evenly distribute and press carrots over the cabbage. Place a nice, even layer of corned beef on top, overlapping a bit and distributing the nice fatty pieces evenly until fully covered. Pour in 1 cup of the reserved broth. Dollop mashed potatoes over top, then spread into a uniform layer with the back of a spatula. Switch to a fork and push potatoes to the edge of the dish. Then drag the fork sideways back and forth over the potatoes to create a texture. Repeat this texture going top to bottom over the potatoes. Sprinkle with a little more Cheddar.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until beautifully browned and piping hot, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, warm any remaining broth over medium-low heat.
• Cut Shepherd's pie into squares and garnish with scallions. Serve with warmed broth.
