I've only recently found your channel and really like your videos. I have a question. My husband grew up in Salt Lake City, Utah and up until a few years ago there was a local company that made Scottish meat pies; the guy who started it was originally from Scotland. I've found that no one (American) outside Salt Lake has the slightest idea what I'm talking about. They hear "meat pie" and think "potpie". They had a crust that wasn't puff pastry or phylo, or even a regular pie crust. And it was made of ground meat, but was very well seasoned and not just meat. It had a sort of meatloaf texture, so there was some kind of breadcrumbs and/or other fillers. I've scrolled through your videos and haven't seen anything like it (but it's certainly possible I missed it!). If you have anything like it, I'd love to be able to make him some. We live in Iowa and he hasn't had a meat pie in a decade and I'd love to be able to make him some!
Sounds like a SCOTCH pie to me :) They are very popular here....found in all the bakers, cafes, takeaways and supermarkets. The pie crust you're referring to takes weeks to dry out (if you're doing it the right way!) There are short cut versions out there on youtube...but the end result just won't br the same :) x
So, my thoughts were completely on Ms.Doubtfire...and then it switched out to Robin William's and how great an actor he was, and that he'll truly be missed. As soon as it ended.... I thought I want to be roomies with this lady. She has the voice of an angel👼🤗
Made your beef pie featured last week with pie crust bottom and puff pastry top. I had been undecided what to do with a 1/2# of waygu beef and your instruction to use the best beef you can afford decided me. I ended up with three perfect sized single servings that were delicious. At the grocer day before yesterday I bought a bottle of merlot for the next time. Today I diced up the left over lamb roast for a planned Shepherd's pie, and your newest recipe will my next.
Cheryl, loved this recipe. You are 'the master' of it all, pies included. Always look forward to your new posts. One of the few cooking channels worth watching.
I absolutely love your Affirmation “you are the master of your own pies”! These look delicious and I’m look forward to trying them! Thank you Cheryl for sharing xx
Great recipe - perfect comfort food. 😋 And a wee chuckle along the way "I'm not going to attempt to say Worcestershire-shire sauce, I'm just going to say Wooshter". 😂
I always call it Worcestershire-shire! It's only proper!! No-one in my house would know what I was talking about if I didn't call it by its 'proper' name!
Greetings from the North East of England.👋 Your channel popped up on my recommendation list, so this is the only 1 I've watched. Looking forward to watching some more.These pies caught my eye. They look amazing. I also love your commentary, very calm and soothing. 😊
@@natalyatucker3158 Unfortunately, I got called into work and have yet to try it. Trying something new for the first time us always trial and error. I keep going til I get it right. I'm hoping I can try and get to it this weekend. Much luck.
Thank you. Cheryl, what a super recipe. I’ve never ever seen them in our shops in Wiltshire or anywhere else in the uk. Great for main meals and to take to work for lunch. Will definitely be making these soon.
Wonderful recipe. I’ll opt for vegetarian but it will be perfect for chilly fall suppers. Thank you. Your terrific accent reminds me of dear friends who live north of Edinburgh and the former owner of the 3 Chimneys restaurant in Skye, Shirley Spear. She was a great chef and made our time on Loch Dunvegan the more memorable.
the salt in after boiling is an urban legend, what makes a difference is the elevation above sea level, th higer up you are, the quicker water will boil, even at 70C is you're really high up as the air pressure is less and water boils when the water makes it to the same pressure around it, so on a mountain it'll be quicker than at the beach, you wee peis looks fab, I made a big one the other day, so good
I was told it could ruin your pots with the salt sitting on the bottom." Salting water in a stainless steel pot before it comes to a boil can result in pitting, which is a form of rusting. "
When I went to Glasgow had one well 2 in the pot still.pub.they are amazing.the combination is great.. cannot wait to revisit.when this covid is sorted
Look yummy! I’ve been making mine in individual glass bowls with mashed spuds on top and I like lumpy mashed potatoes. Next time I’ll try puff pastry for bottoms. My Dad was born in 1911 in Bradford Yorkshire. My parents made them in big casserole dishes. 😊❤️🇨🇦
Looks fab Cheryl, as always :) Just a little tip that I've been using for years. your OXO cubes are a bit messy when you crumble them in your fingers so I always do them in the foil, just squash them down in the foil and crumble them, careful not to break the foil til that's done then tear off one corner and you can just pour the crumbs into whatever you're cooking. No more messy fingers :)
@@stevenholton438 Depends where K T is from in the US, as "Yank" aka "Yankee", refers ONLY to those in New England, (and of course the NY baseball team). So if K T is from anywhere else in the US, the term doesn't apply, Limey.
Oh I will be trying this. I'm so glad I found your channel. Bye the Bye I made your Scotch Broth recipe , it was fantastic, it's ready for this evening, so thank you for that
Cheers from Ontario, Canada...I just subscribed to your channel. I love cottage pie and this version looks delicious! Your videos are straight forward with great instructions. Thanks ...looking forward to more great recipes.
Thank you for this recipe Cheryl...I just forwarded it on to my niece (also a Cheryl) in Canada. I think this is something she and her husband will enjoy. Have a Blessed day.
Nice recipe. Two tips. If you don't want to use cheese as a topping, stir a raw egg yolk into your mash, that way you'll still get a 'crust' on top. Also, if you have any of the meat/veg mixture and mash left over, stir it all together, chill, form it into balls or croquette shapes, egg wash and breadcrumb then fry. Fantastic with ketchup!
Yum!!! I'm sooo hungry now!! You really need to contact a factory and get those packages up and into our freezer case! I would definite buy like...a year's worth for my freezer!
Look at all those lovely peas and carrots in your mince! Because of your videos, I came home from the shops with a big bag full of root veggies, you reminded me of how delicious they are in British cuisine.. love this recipe. Thank you
I,m having a wee smile on my face Cheryl your like me ,your turning the pies around and around to its best side to show them to perfection ...😁...BTW I love your recipes and I,ve made these little beauties with Quorn mince and your right they,re fantastic thank you and keep up your good work . Mari from the Scottish Borders ..
👍😍😍😍 will be trying asap. BRAVO Cheryl. Luv luv ur recipes. You and I n ur family stay safe. Very hot n humid in Minnesota, but won't stop me from making. 😉
these look amazing! I'm making them for dinner tonight and am so excited!! I don't know why these types of handheld savory pies aren't as popular in the U.S., but they should be! We have what we call 'pot pies' which are small meat pies w/ veggies & gravy but they aren't a hugely popular staple; nor are they considered a handheld food; plates and silverware are a must because they have the gravy inside, no jelly that firms up and keeps from dripping. On the occasion that someone is craving a chicken or beef pot pie, ppl just buy the frozen ones at the store, it's one of those things that we don't think to make at home. I live in a very cold place in the U.S. and so have an appreciation for warm hearty comfort foods.
@@stevenholton438 You got that right! I have one born in East Tennessee! LOL THAT's an accent. To add to the mix, I was married for 14 years to a Geordie. :-)
Those are beautiful! I just made and canned a big batch of shepherds' pie mix the other day. Two of the jars didn't seal so that is what I had for breakfast (YUM). I use Gordon Ramsey's recipe but use parmesano reggiano cheese and jersey sweet potatoes. My favorite meat mix is half beef/half lamb but my latest batch I tried ground Angus tri-tip and sweet italian turkey sausage. I've never tried putting it in pastry but it looks really tasty.
Never seen the Shepard pies like this, I am going to do this one looks yummy, when the kids were little we had a German Shepard dog and his name was Sherpa I had to change the Shepard pie to veg pie, that the only way they would eat it they said we cant eat Sherpa 😊 ha ha thanks again to you all love your channel.
Hello, thank you for your great videos and the effort you go to for us, you have inspired me to try your various pie recipes, they look delicious .. I cant wait to try making them . regards and best wishes from Australia.
You have the voice of an absolute angel. Loved the idea of pastry dough....I've done this exact thing...but with chicken pot pie instead. I definately have to try this. Thanks for sharing!
I'm French Canadian , and we put corn instead in between the meat and potatoes ,,, but yours looks yummy as well,,, I give those a try some day ,,, looks yummy
Our shepherd's consisted on left overs all through the week, that accumulated in the fridge, we usually had this for lunch on Sunday after church..it was topped with fresh home made mashed potatoes and just before it was Browning. We topped with sharp cheddar cheese. ..this was a great lunch..then supper was usually a standing rib roast. With carrots, potatoes, onions, and turnips...
Chris Underwood I agree 💯. Most people from British countries understand the difference between the two pies. My mother and grandmother made their shepherds pies from minced, cold, roast lamb. Cottage pies were always made with minced beef.
Chris Underwood Yes, that was also my experience growing up. Roast lamb on Sunday after church, followed by Shepherds pie from the left over meat on Monday night.
Love watching your channel, an inspiration, we have the grandchildren over for dinner every Wednesday, cooked some of your recipes and they love um 😋 thanks
I made these for our family right after the video. They came out perfectly! As demonstrated. We all loved them and how they turned out, so thank you so much!
@@22ergie I made them last Sat, and they turned out great. 😂 It's more work than a 'normal' one dish Cottage Pie, but well worth the extra few minutes.

have you tried Welsh 'Pasties' ?? orRussian Pierogi ? they are also'hand-pies' you can find some places here in the U.States..
One of the greatest inventions in the world, shepherds pie.
Video starts and I had an immediate flashback to the Mrs. Doubtfire character! This looks like a nice yummy recipe to try.
Omg yesssssss !!!!!! 👏
So, my thoughts were completely on
Ms.Doubtfire...and then it switched out to Robin William's and how great an actor he was, and that he'll truly be missed. As soon as it ended.... I thought I want to be roomies with this lady. She has the voice of an angel👼🤗
