In the 70s, my mother would make cheese and onion pie at the end of the week if money was a bit tight. With the cost of cheese and butter these days, I don't think it counts as a cheap option any more!
Too right!.... in 2024, Fresh Meat, Cheese, and Butter are the most expensive items in my kitchen/refrigerator! Cheese is now a costly, luxury item!....😟....😟....!
Wonderful pie! Greggs cheese and onion pasties, which we actually CAN get in Hampshire, don't get a look-in! You do home cooking at its very best guys! x
Every Sunday we had a big Sunday dinner, then Mam would spend the day making cheese n onion pie, corner beef pie sausage rolls and so much more, now I'm older I can appreciate the time she spent baking, no wonder I'm overweight 😂😂😂
Never even heard of this before, yesterday I was drawn to a random video of some one making Cheese and onion pasties, then today this pie. Exactly the same filling too. Love watching people eat real cheese, not what we call PVC (plastic)cheese here in Australia. I don’t think this would work with processed cheese to be honest, but taste is a very subjective thing, so I am told. 😊 Thanks so much for sharing Mand here in New South Wales, AU, it’s been cold, for here and this time of the year. It’s been raining and pretty miserable for 3 or 4 days in a row, and we expect a couple more days of it, to come. This pie sounds just right for this kind of weather. I can’t wait…..
Oo that looks absolutely gorgeous and so well filled , can’t do with a stingy filling lol , this and meat and potato are our favourites thank you for sharing yours it really looks lovely and since watching you iv started making my pastry in the food processor it’s so quick and easier on the hands 👏🏻Amanda xx
That pie is a vision of godliness, I have a hangover an I'm starving.i knew I should've saved this video til tomorrow...another banger Mrs D,well done.
@@thedinnerlady9180 I just woke up and thought.🤔as you do..😂.chunks of corned beef would go nice in that too...cant believe i dreamt about your pie 🤣...im deffo gonna make that when i get a new cooker...
You are so adorable and so relatable. My hubby loves Potato's more than any other Veggies so I can't wait to make this for him. We both have an Italian/ English background and we mostly cook Italian food at home but as we are getting older we are more interested in our English cooking heritage but neither of us got to spend much time with that side of our families so I am grateful for your channel, Thank you.
Interesting isn’t how so many countries make what is essentially the same thing,Poland’s pierogi,Jewish knishes,Moldovan stuffed potato pastries,bourekas from the Middle East and even France does potato stuffed puff pastry.The more you learn the more you realize just how similar we all are.Peru ‘s potatoes covered in cheese sauce,as they are the first home of potatoes they have so many potato dishes.My local supermarket sells packages of dried Peruvian potatoes.i like baked stuffed potatoes like this with cheese,and onion,it’s more practical for me as I live alone,and since I have retired I don’t eat as much as I did when working in a hot kitchen,and running,up,and down stairs all day,even in the underground trains there are lots of stairs,most station don’t have escalators as they do in London.😊
✨ Looks absolutely delicious 👌🏻 I always make my own cheese & onion pies from scratch even homemade pastry my all time favourite pie filling 😋 yummy 🤗 thank you for sharing your version 👍🏻 enjoy guys Bon appitite ✨
Cheese and onion pie is pure comfort food. I used to make this at the school I work at but it wouldn't go down well these days kids eat different things now. I'm going to make this and eat it with baked beans.
Me and my husband have been watching our weight for months as it’s our son’s wedding in a few days. I’m going to make this for us after the wedding and we will thoroughly enjoy it! 😊❤ Thank you for sharing this wonderful, nostalgic recipe.
Plenty of filling there Dinner lady! Looks lovely. Love the old classic dishes your doing, all tried and tested. We were brought up on these classics. Nice to see them making a return.
Oh that looks delicious and lovely, I used to hate cheese pie at school dinner, but I now love cheese....going to make a cheese based pie/tart/quiche.....
Another brilliant recipe as always Mand, your a brilliant teacher, you have shown us so so much and make it look so easy, thank you for your time and effort sharing all your knowledge, please keep the recipes coming,💗💕
Very nice, you did right pointing out about that blade in the mixer, first time I put me hand to get the pastry out it turn red, I am gunner give this one a go, thanks you two.
I make it the same way as you do except I also add a level teaspoon of mustard powder as I find it helps to make the cheese taste stronger xxx thanks for sharing x Elaine
Hello Mandy that pie looks 👍 will give it a go soon! Love your cooking and Ian's hope you've had lovely bank holiday John in stow on the wold Cotswolds big fan! X
I do the same ingredients, but thinly slice the spuds ( use spuds you could mash, not new ones!), and onions, grate the cheese, then layer them in a baking dish with the cheese and onion, ie, spud, onion, cheese, spud, onion, cheese,and so on, then pour enough whole milk on to just come to the top, then bake till the milk has absorbed, the cheese is brown on top and melty and saucy inside, and the spuds are tender. Great as a meal with your favourite veggies (sweetcorn is yummy), or make it to accompany sausages, or homemade meatloaf, or just scoff it on its own! To vary it a bit, add a little ham or cooked bacon into the layers (not too much... salt!), and you can, if you like, top the final cheese layer with thinly sliced tomato.😊
Dinner Lady can i ask can you make the Steak and Ale pie with that short crust pastry instead of the Hot water pastry i got into such a mess today trying to get the hot water pastry rolled out, in fact i chucked it in the bin and used the cheats version ready rolled from Asda ....Whats the difference in the two of them...
Just found your channel. This video popped up & that pie looks so delicious. Proper comfort food 😋 My Mum used to make cheese & onion pie & it was my favourite. Looking forward to watching more of your videos ☺️

Fabulous ❤
My mouth was watering watching this! I’m going to have to make it 😂 Haven’t had this since I was a kid!!!
Me and my husband have been watching our weight for months as it’s our son’s wedding in a few days. I’m going to make this for us after the wedding and we will thoroughly enjoy it! 😊❤ Thank you for sharing this wonderful, nostalgic recipe.
How wonderful hope you all have the best day x
@@thedinnerlady9180 Thank you 🙏
That looked delicious, got to have strong cheese 👍 I’m going to bet Ian had another slice ? 🤣 really lovely pie Mand 👍
Sprinkle of parmigiana on the top towards end of cooking time or any cheese you fancy but not to much
One of my favourites. Funny though, this is exactly how I do it if I'm making pasties. If I'm making a pie though, I slice the potatoe and onion.
ps I also love it made with Wensleydale cheese.
Plenty of filling there Dinner lady!
Looks lovely.
Love the old classic dishes your doing, all tried and tested.
We were brought up on these classics.
Nice to see them making a return.
Yum, this has to be one of my all time favourites. Not made it in years. I could imagine having this on a picnic, when cold!
That looks yummy. Soul food.
Looks lush I'd have to make a bit of gravy 😁
Oh that looks delicious and lovely, I used to hate cheese pie at school dinner, but I now love cheese....going to make a cheese based pie/tart/quiche.....
I'm glad I found your channel, it's great to be able to watch without annoying music through the video, hoping to try this recipe soon.

Looks fantastic. Real comfort food at its best. Thank you.
I cook my onions in the microwave
I don't think you get that nice caramelised taste with the microwave

I don't cook apart from mainly frozen pizza! But yeah keep checking out your channel! I feel it's inspiring to get on a mission in the kitchen 👌
Lovely 😍
Please would you make old fashioned custard slice with shortcrust pastry
Love your recipies thank you xx
Lovely, I’d scoff the lot!!
I add Worcestershire sauce to my pie filling for extra flavour.
Oh this was my favourite school dinner with awful chips and beans.
Oh that's a shame, I was at high school early 70's, our dinners were all yummy my, especially the chips( not leather look liver tho)!😮
@@CheshireCat6639 you misunderstand. I loved it, and the liver they gave us was gorgeous. Cherry cheesecake was magnificent too.
That looked delicious just what to have after night out, love you both ❤😊❤🎉xxxx
Another great recipe, I'm going try it out with my new pie dishes from Amazon. Thanks for sharing x
Now that pie looks Yummy
You could open a pie who with your lovely variety of pies.. Great ! Looks delicious !
Should read. A pie shop..! X

And that is a pie!!!!
Best served with another slice next to it. 😂😂😂😂😂
Haha normally have it with beans but didn't have any 😕 x
I sometimes add bacon pieces to my cheese and potato pie.
Dinner Lady can i ask can you make the Steak and Ale pie with that short crust pastry instead of the Hot water pastry i got into such a mess today trying to get the hot water pastry rolled out, in fact i chucked it in the bin and used the cheats version ready rolled from Asda ....Whats the difference in the two of them...
Yes you can it's just what I'm used to x
