Bought two. Baked one following all the instructions. It took a bit of time but worked to the letter. Delicious but a big pies so had to cut it into four pieces. Sadly the resolve i had to save some for the next day collapsed and I ate them all on day one.
We’ve tried many ‘pretend’ pork pies over here in the USA, but this is the real deal! Easy to prepare, although for personal preferences we chose not to add the gelatine, and the end result was delicious - we will be ordering more!
Really enjoyed these. Very easy to prepare. Nice taste of home. Minor note, was a bit salty. May be my fault for adding too much jelly. Love the jelly.
