How to make Corned Beef Pie
Corned beef pie is a traditional family favourite. It is made with corned beef from a tin in the UK or Brisket of beef in the USA also called Salt beef or Bully beef.
Many recipes for Corned beef pie include the addition of vegetables, Carrots, Peas as this is a great way to use up left over vegetables from the refrigerator.
For this recipe I have made my own pastry, but you can just as well use shop bought pastry if you are not good at making pastry.
Corned beef pie can be eaten hot or cold, but my favourite is Corned beef pie with baked beans and chip.

Cooking Instructions
- Peel the potatoes and bring to the boil in a pan of salted water, do the same for the carrots - peel and dice them then simmer for 20 minutes until just cooked.
- When the potatoes are cooked (Soft) remove them from the heat and drain them. Remove the carrots and drain.
- Add 20 g of salted butter to the potatoes and mash them with a potato masher.
- When the potatoes are mashed season them with the black pepper.

- Line the bottom of a pie dish with the pastry and Blind Bake it for 10 minutes @ 180c .
- When the pastry base is cooked add the filling to the dish then top with a pastry lid, egg wash and bake 200c for 25 minutes.
- If you do not want to Blind Bake the base you can cover the pie with foil and cook for 20 minutes before removing the foil and cooking @ 200c for 25 minutes. This should also give you a nice crusty base.
The filling for this pie can be used to make Corned-beef pasties or even Corned-beef fritters.
Try adding a little more pepper if you like it spicy.
