OLD FASHIONED BACON AND EGG PIE

Steps:

• Place the Flour, Butter and Salt into a mixing bowl
• Rub lightly with the fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs
• Add the egg yolks and most of the cold water
• Stir this through the flour with a knife until it comes together in lumps.
• Now press together until it just comes away from the sides of the bowl and form it into a ball.
• Flatten the ball of dough, wrap it in clingfilm and allow it to rest in the fridge for at least half an hour.
• Preheat oven to 180°C / 375°F
• Fry the bacon until most of the fat has been cooked out and the bacon is almost crispy. Drain on paper towel and allow to cool.
• Roll ⅔ of the pastry to about ¼ inch thickness and line your pie dish. Let it overlap the edges slightly.
• Layer the bacon on the bottom of the lined pie dish
• Break each of the 6 eggs on top of the bacon at roughly evenly spaced intervals.
• Mix the remaining 2 eggs with the cream and milk, season with salt and pepper (optional)
• Pour the egg mix slowly over the bacon and eggs in the pie dish allowing it to fill any gaps.
• Roll the remaining ⅓ of the pastry into a circle and place it on top of the pie.
• Crimp the edges of the pie to seal and cut off any excess pastry. You could use the trimming to cut leaf shapes to decorate the top of the pie.
• Pick holes on the top of the pastry with a fork to allow steam to escape whilst cooking and then brush with a little beaten egg and milk to glaze.
• Place in the oven and bake for approximately 35 minutes until golden brown.

SPICY BACON-AND-EGG PIE

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, pulse together flour and salt until combined. Add butter and pulse until pieces are the size of lima beans. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, just until dough comes together (anywhere from 4 to 8 tablespoons). There should still be flecks of butter left in the dough. Shape dough into two evenly sized discs and wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least one hour before baking. (Dough can be made up to 1 week ahead.)
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc to a 12-inch circle. (Leave the other disc in the fridge.) Transfer rolled dough to a 9-inch pie plate; trim and crimp edges. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Prick bottom of pie with a fork. Line with foil or parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil or paper and pie weights or beans. Bake until pale golden and dry to the touch, about 5 to 7 minutes more.
• Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees. Evenly scatter half of the bacon and half of the scallions on bottom of pie. Carefully crack 8 eggs over mixture, distributing them evenly around pie with their yolks intact. Season eggs generously with salt and pepper. Whisk together 5 tablespoons heavy cream with Sriracha and ketchup. Use a teaspoon to dollop it on top of the eggs and then sprinkle with remaining bacon and scallion.
• Lightly flour the counter. Roll out remaining disc of pie dough until 1/8-inch thick (it should be thinner than the previous dough round). Trim into 10-inch circle. Carefully place on top of the pie, pressing the edges into the side of the pie, if possible. There should be no overhang and the dough should fit almost perfectly. Use a fork to whisk together yolk from remaining egg and 1 tablespoon heavy cream. Brush top of pie with egg wash and cut 4 shallow slits in the middle of the top crust (don't go deep, you don't want to puncture the eggs). Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown. Let cool for at least 20 minutes for serving.
