    Had one of these at the Bristol Hi-Fi show and was seriously impressed.

    Had a few Pieminister pies and have not been touched. But this one rocks. I've just had another to confirm its excellence.

    it should, and I repeat should, be served with gravy granules and mash. I know it is bad gravy, but it really suits it.

    Some prepared supermarket mash will do, but I admit I've just used real mash and it is better if you can be arsed, obviously.

    Believe the cooking instructions and cook it at 160 degs fan for 25 minutes. If you go higher you will make the pastry too hard, and much will be lost.

    Try before you die.

    Always an effort, Grant. Well done.

    Loaf above is phenomenal. And soooo simple.

    The best homebrew I ever made was pale malt, water, Goldings hops, Smiles brewery yeast.

    I spent quite a few years being ultra serious about home brew.

    Very high quality ingredients in the simplest recipes very often produce absolutely outstanding results. Just so long as you know what you are doing. And that can take a few years of messing around to really get it nailed.

    Simple is best I'm finding. Last night I just knocked up a sauce containing:

    Tin of chopped tomatoes + extra half tin of water
    Good pinch of oregano
    3x squashed garlic cloves
    Good grind of pepper and a good pinch of sea salt
    A marinated big piece of roasted red pepper out of the jar, finely chopped
    Good glug of extra virgin olive oil

    Threw it into a pan, covered for 15 minutes on a rolling simmer, then took the lid off, reduced it down and then hit it with a hand blender, and then stirred some pasta into it. Done.

    I couldn't be arsed to sweat onions down, so got the extra depth from the roasted pepper. Worked well as a lazy but yummy and healthy dish. If I had any anchovies to hand I would have thrown one of those in too, you can't taste it, but you can taste the depth it adds.

    Sounds nice Neil.

    I'd bung a pinch of sugar, a small squeeze of fresh lemon and a small knob of butter in that. But that's just me.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Yep see where you're coming from there. Bit of richness and sheen from the butter, bit of cut through from the lemon, and a bit of extra depth from the sugar.

    Wagamama Prawn Itame copy by me. Unflattering pic in pan but it is good.

    Next time I will actually make some decent green curry paste as it is so much better than supermarket stuff.

    Just dump on top of rice noodles. Ace.
