Electric pie makers and recipe ideas ;)

DJ, i make heaps.

From an incident I used the creamy chicken pasta recipe on here before adding the pasta. Ses chicken & mushrooms

You can do so much, pre-cook chicken, use edc whte sauce and add cooked veg, nice

On stove cook up chicken with garlic, onion, any other veg, corn, mushroom, carrot, leek whatever, bit of white  wine & some cream, yum too.

So much choice, have fun

DJ, the SOS recipe base makes the best pie I've ever tasted. Both Chookie & I have made the filling using this base and then it's just a matter of sauteeing some mushrooms and chicken (or adding leftover cooked chicken or pork).  So simple, so delicious.

I had a pie making day recently.  Made 14 pies.  My pie maker makes Traditional size pies.  I used Uni's  Sour cream pastry recipe for the bases and butter puff for tops.  Uni's recipe is great as I could roll it very thin.  Normally I dislike pies because of the high ratio of crust to filling.  I also rolled and cut additional tops and bases. And froze these with lunch wrap in between.   These were ready to go,  next time I wanted pies.  I also used Uni's pastry for Apple pies.  I did. Not add any sugar to pastry.  I froze the pies in individual bags with a label. And defrosted  then repeated in pie maker.

Hi Anncb, welcome to the forum with your first posting.  Why not pop over to the Introduce Yourself thread on the home page and tell us a bit about yourself so that we can officially welcome you.  The eBook sounds interesting and we all know how wonderful the pie maker is.

I don't want to read all 34 pages, so wondered if you could help please.

What pastry/ies do you use?

I make a basic shortcrust.
Made Uni's sour cream one last week for pasties, but that is too expensive for all the time and too fattening!

[Halex]

I make edc shortcrust  for bottom & buy puff for top.

Works well.

If I'm organised, I do the same as Hally but often I just use the puff pastry sheets top and bottom and it works just fine.
