Pies.

Arquard, 24 January, 2013 at 11:45 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 21

Apparently yesterday was National Pie Day, so I made a lovely chicken and veg pie for our dinner (not very SW-friendly but I saved my syns up all day for it!). H liked it so much, he wants the same again tonight.

What are you favourite types of pie? Is it only really a pie if there's pastry on the bottom too, or is it acceptable to have a casserole dish full of 'stuff' with a pastry lid? Are sweet pies better than savoury?

    My Favourite pie is Steak and red onion - but im not keen on pastry!!! I usually lift off the lid and just have the bottom ? I neve ate pie until H and I got together as its a waste really but he loves all pies.

    Now sweet pies are a different kettle of fish, they are the best - filled with any fruit, apple, cherry, blackcurrants. I am a sucker for Rhubarb though thats the best.

    All pies count and all pies are good regardless of filling, type of pastry or with or without a base. Fact.

    Love from Jenny the pastry chef ;-P

    This is absolutely gorgeous. Do you order from their website? I have been put off as you can only order 12 at a time and that would be too much temptation.

    My homemade pies only ever get a roll of puff pastry at the top.

    I make a nice chicken, vege & white wine pie.

    Can also highly recommend Jamie Olivers Steak & Guiness Pie /recipes/beef/

    Im not a massive red meat fan but even I love this pie.

    My gran used to make mince and bean pie which was amazing and is my favourite meal! Also sausage and egg pie which was yummy too.

    steak is a good favourite. The ones from my work are amazing. That's our new year/special meal go to. It's Hs favourite!

    Sweet pie is has to be cherry. Although rhubarb isn't bad.

    I honestly cant remember the last time I had a pie. It must have been when I still lived at home, so we are talking pre uni. Fark me I haven't had pie in 18 years. I don't like savoury ones and H "thinks hot fruit is wrong" weirdo. I really want cherry pie and custard now.

    I love steak & Ale pie - not had it in ages though.

    I loathe pork pies with a passion. I remember being horrendously sick after eating one. In hindsight, it might not have been the pork pie but I've always associated the two.

    I love apple pie too.

    Damn, I'm hungry now!

    I bloody love pie. To me it's only a pie if you can pick it up... none of this 'casserole dish with a lid of pastry' malarkey. I may well be technically wrong but I've only ever encountered standalone pies.

    Haven't had pie in ages and now I want one...! Love pastry. Oh and savoury pies are better than sweet, but as a veggie there's usually a limited selection.

    Another pieminister fan! We used to go quite often on a sunday, but then we moved back down south and we don't have one nearby. I used to have one that had thai green chicken in- think it was called 'chicken of aragon' or something. I don't really like sweet pies, but love savoury pies.
