re meat pies

[NSWP]

A nice pie from Trappers in Goulburn, covid free I hope as the bakery is on the covid exposure list from a visit by a Victorian last week.

 

Trappers also own Braidwood Bakery, you Canberrans would know about that place, halfway stop between Canberra and Batemans Bay on ye olde Kings Highway, a gold mine.

We stopped at Trappers for coffee on our big trip earlier this year. It was a bit early for us for pies but we tried their pastries. The chocolate croissant I had was the best I've ever had in Australia, and it was huge.

I bought ingredients to make sausage rolls yesterday. Evidently should have made them today! 😃 I will do so in the next couple of days.

Watched that 4 corners thing about Crown Casino turns out James Packer and Alan Jones favourite food is pies and mash😂. Barry O'Farrel let the team down apparently wouldn't touch the pies. Maybe it didn't go with his wine😜.

The 🥧 pies at the Braidwood shop are made at Trappers, Goulburn, I asked them. Other stuff, bread, cakes, are made at Braidwood. Always busy.

Here’s a interesting look at Australian cuisine from the deli University.

One of my sisters is crazy for the “Days” and posts on face ache about them every time one rolls (pun intended) around.

I hope no one was offended by our friends from Delhi University.

So on a tangent topic, more related to sausage roll day which passed unacknowledged by me a few days ago. As it turns out it was a very late lunch today, we went to Spitfire grill, I enjoyed "roast beef sliders" mini Yorkshire puddings with roast beef and gravy. Lynn had a spinach salad and we both had their excellent seafood chowder. After such a large lunch Lynn just had some bread and butter. I bought some sausage rolls at the market we stopped at after lunch. They were delicious for a very light supper. We also bought some meat pies at the same place, we haven't tried them yet I will report back after we do. On a side note we were in the butcher shop next door and they had some pies in the case. I don't think they were even 100 mm in diameter and they were priced at $9.50 (clearly someone has a high opinion of their own product).

Well done, very unusual to make sausage rolls at home these days, we never did. Always frozen ones or from bakery.

I actually don't think it is uncommon Les,  I have friends and family who make sausage rolls regularly. Our neighbour made some a couple of weeks ago and brought a few over for us. Home made are usually much nicer than bought ones.

Only once Les, when I made some for my daughter in law and I was not happy with them. The pastry split but they evidently tasted ok.

I was wondering the sane so googled it and came across this recipe which sounded nice. 

https://www.recipetineats.com/special-pork-fennel-sausage-rolls/

I might try it later this week.

 

She gives very detailed instructions, photos, and videos. I tried her Crispy Pork Belly recipe last Saturday and it was the best pork belly recipe I've found so far.

My mum would have said "what's google"? 🤣

 

The internet was only in its infancy when she passed away.

Depending what the occasion is, I may use a combination of pork mince and beef sausage mince or just the sausage mince. No, you don't have to pre-cook the meat. I use sheet puff pastry. 1 Kg of mince to 4-5 sheets of pastry. There are stacks of recipes on google, although I must admit I tend to make mine up as I go. For just a normal SR,  I usually add finely diced onion, finely chopped fresh parsley,  garlic to your taste,  1 cup fresh breadcrumbs, 1 beaten egg, 2 tablespoons tomato sauce/ketchup. Seasoning. Mix all ingredients together.
