I live in Asia and have to make my own, it's a lot of trouble but worth it.

Mincemeat pies seemed like an interesting idea for a savory pastry until I tried one and discovered that they fucking candied the meat. Why the fuck did anyone think this is a good idea?

Try meat doughnut some time.

I read an amazing filling recipe:
>1/8 celeriac root
>2/8 carrots
>2/8 onions
>shred these
>3/8 mincemeat
>"enough" tomato paste
>fry on pan a little, steep off excess moisture if the paste seems too runny
>season with salt, pepper, soy sauce, vinegar of your choise, your secret ingredients (parmesan!) etc.

Use as doughnut filling. Obviously you don't want to make the dough overly sweet for this.
By the way, the "standard" filling is more like rice/barley, onions and mincemeat.

Not sure if serious , but its not first time i heard this mistake. Even in the UK. The "mince meat" you are referring to isn't actual meat. Its fruit. Raisins and sultanas mixed with brown sugar and assorted spices. Mixed peel and nutmeg etc. So a preserve, like a jam i suppose. Traditionally had at Christmas.

I think hundreds and hundreds of years ago it originally contained a combination of both actual meat AND fruit. And over the course of time the meat was replaced by spices as they became available, and the "meat pie" became a sweet pie instead of savoury

Are these popular outside Australia? I know they're a thing in Britain, but are they popular?

A mince pie is an entirely different thing if that's what you're getting mixed up with.

Barely over a hundred, actually. The recipe in the north of England still usually included meat during the Edwardian (1910). After WWI it just used suet.

I've never had a savoury pie. Can someone give me a good mince beef pie recipe? It looks pretty good.

[Anonymous No.12184943]

>>12184850
I'm sure someone has a good recipe for you. I've never made one myself but it seems pretty simple, I usually just buy them, they're available even to us degenerates in the states.

make shepherd's pie filling or beef stew, but instead of topping it with mashed potatoes you put it in a pie crust instead.

the filling is cooked in advance, cooled down, then put in the pastry & baked until the pastry is golden.

make minced meat. make beef stock gravy (no milk) add meat to gravy. make puff pastry. put it into pie molds. put meat in the pie. add mozzerella if you like cheese. cover the pie. bake them. done.

[Anonymous No.12186023]

It is pretty straight forward. As mentioned, it's mainly just minced beef in gravy inside a pie. Just lots of little tweaks people do. Some like to do a puff pastry lid. Could also use minced steak. Some fine chopped onions. I like to make sure i got plenty pepper in mine. Not TOO much, just enough to compliment.

We usually have it chips or maybe mash potatoes

Bongs are fucking retarded. No wonder Brexit is happening

[Anonymous No.12188355]

>>12186832
No. It's:
>minced beef
>beef that has been minced* (or ground in burger ebonics) and goes in a savoury pie

>mincemeat
>a fruity** sweet pie that once upon a time had meat in the recipe. We have some history over here.

What any of that has to do with Brexit is unfathomable to a normal person.
