English Translation


This is a traditional Gower pie that used to be brought as a wedding gift. The traditional form, given here, uses a hot water pastry. But you can substitute shortcrust pastry if you wish.

Method:

Roll the pastry out on a floured surface then cut in half and use one half to cover a deep pie plate. Mix the lamb, onion, herbs and mustard powder together then season. Use this to fill the pie and sprinkle enough stock over the top to moisten the ingredients. Place a top on the pie, using a little water to seal them together and crimping with a fork. Trim the excess pastry away and cut a hole in the centre of the lid to allow steam to escape.

Brush the top with a little milk then place in an oven pre-heated to 170°C (325°F/Gas Mark 3) and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the pastry is cooked through and golden. This pie can be served either hot or cold.
