Gala Pie'ish

[Lynn Davies]

just taken this out of the oven. Sausage meat halved and flattened out. 4 hard boiled eggs laid down the middle. The other half of sausage meat flattened out and laid on top. Seal the top and bottom together. Add decorative posh looking lattice design of bacon and cook for 35 mins at 180c fan.

Total of 32 carbs for the whole thing. Going to have it cold with salad

I am already ahead of you there stitch! Looking at foodstuffs to cook ahead to take away with us in the moho!

I might actually like that Lynn whereas TBH the only part of any 'pork pie' - so that includes 'real' Gala pies - I have ever liked - is the pastry!

(Loath the 'meat' content, the h/b egg tastes peculiar in them, the jelly is particularly disgusting ...... Retch)

Butttttt - will it slice OK cold, or will the bacon impede the slicing?

 

[Lynn Davies]

I will let you know TW. Might even get the camera out again to prove it either way.

I love pork pies but ...... It has to be one of the 'dirty' ones. Cheap and cheerful with some grey anonymous mush set inside that lovely jelly!

No wonder I have a big 'arris!

 

[Lynn Davies]

Cuts a dream. Had it in the fridge for about 4 hours so it's very cold.

I'm off to Tesco's right now. Thanks Lynn

 

[Lynn Davies]

We will get 2 meals out of it making each portion 8 carbs.

 

[trophywench]

That's ACE Lynn! Tescos in the morning anyway ..... saus meat and streaky bacon on the list!

 

[Mark Parrott]

This will be perfect for me to take to work.

He's my attempt, maybe I was closer to 190 but hey I'll take it, loads of brownie points for me dinner will be ready when my wife walks in the door. To top it off we got our first batch of Jersey spuds through today so I can put some in the salad.


Sorry its so big not mastered that yet,

Thanks Lynn

 

[Lynn Davies]

Wow Alan! That looks lovely. Nice lattice effect on the bacon.

We are having the last of ours for tea tonight. Hope you enjoy xx

 

[Alan.tnh]

Just Finished, it was great, I will need to be quick for seconds I sent a pic to my girls on whatsapp and they both want some for lunch tomorrow. Grrrrrggg pesky kids

 

[Lynn Davies]

Should have sent the picture after you had finished eating.

 

[Visionvalue]

It looks really delicious Lyn . I was wondering about using ordinary sausages and you have answered my question 🙂 . Will definitely have to have a go.

Don't forget to Skin Em! as Lenny Henry's mum used to say to the barber when he was little.






Ooops, sorry - that was 'Skin 'im!' LOL
