Heart shaped Cottage Pies

Heart shaped Cottage Pies

We only had about 250g of minced Beef left from the Brunch Burgers we made as a bit of a joke on Friday. But that’s not an issue. We fished the heart shaped pie formers out of the draw and made mini Cottage Pies.

As a side we had the very red looking Red Cabbage. We’ve discovered that we actually prefer it as a veg just acidified with a bit of Vinegar and sprinkled with Salt and Pepper, but not boiled. The crunch and acidity work really well with mince dishes which otherwise have a very soft texture.

Served with Carrot, peas and lashings of gravy (Added after I tokk the picture) this was a hearty (Pun intended) meal.

As part of our little banquet the other evening we created some incredibly tasty Chicken Stock as a result of boiling the Chicken Feet. This made a great foundation for a Raman.

A handful of Coriander, chopped
A Handful of Bean Sprouts
1 Red Chilli, sliced
½ a Pak Choi, sliced
Oil to fry

Egg Marinade Ingredients:-

2 Tbsp of Soy Sauce (Gluten free for us)
2 Tbsp of Shaoxing Wine
4 Tbsp of Water

Method:-

(1) Marinade the boiled Egg in the Soy Sauce, Shaoxing Wine and Water in the fridge for at least an hour.
(2) In a large pan heat the Broth / Stock.
(3) Fry the Pak Choi.
(4) Boil the noodles until tender.
(5) Slice the boiled Egg in half.
(6) To your serving bowl add the Noodles and Broth.
