CORNED BEEF & POTATO PIE

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 200C/400F/Gas mark 6. Grease and/or line a 10"/23cm pie plate or a large baking sheet for pasties.

Spoon the corned beef filling into the middle of the pastry, leaving about 1"/2.5cm border around the edge. Roll out the remaining pastry and cover the filling with the pastry, sealing around the edges with your thumb, or with a knife/fork. (You can brush some beaten egg on the border before sealing) Trim the edges and brush the beaten egg all over the pie crust, make two a cuts for air holes in the top and decorate with excess pastry if desired. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crisp; serve warm or cold with vegetables, salad and assorted pickles and sauces.

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.

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.

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).

• 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.
