Welsh Chipple And Bacon Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch glass pie plate.
• Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Pat dry on paper towels and crumble the bacon. Sprinkle bacon, cheese, and onion in the pie plate.
• In a medium bowl, stir the milk, eggs, baking mix, and pepper with fork until blended. Pour into pie plate.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Roll out the pasty and line a 9 inch buttered quiche dish. Press buttered foil over the pastry and bake 10 minutes until pastry is firm.
• Reduce heat to 350F, remove foil, and bake pastry for an additional 10 minutes until crisp (but not brown). Remove from oven and cool.
• Heat heavy frying pan, add bacon and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Remove bacon pieces from pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Arrange the bacon in the pie shell.
• Add scallions to the bacon drippings in the pan, and cook over low heat until soft and transparent. Remove scallions from the pan and arrange over the bacon.
• Beat eggs with cream cheese until smooth. Mix in parsley and season well with salt and pepper. Pour mixture over the bacon and scallions.
• Place pie in the oven and bake at 350 for 20 - 30 minutes, until the eggs are just set. (Cover the edges with foil if they're getting too brown.).
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut Red Leicester cheese into 1/2-inch cubes; set aside.
• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until almost cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until completely cooked but not too crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and roughly chop when cool enough to handle.
• Drain potatoes and then mash them roughly; you want a few lumps left in this. Add Red Leicester, chopped bacon, and lots of black pepper; stir to combine. Transfer to a large, deep, oven-proof dish and sprinkle grated Cheddar over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Remove one of the pie crusts from the pan and place on wax paper until soft.
• Cook chicken and cut into pieces.
• Heat butter and fry bacon in butter.
• Stir in flour and cook for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.
• Add milk and chicken stock. Cook until thickened.
• Add chicken and bacon to mix.
• Put into pie crust and cover with the other pie crust.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• FOR THE FILLING: Mix all of the ingredients together, except the crust, and place in a 8 inch deep dish pie plate. Bake covered, in a preheated oven at 375°F for 1/2 hour. Remove from the oven and pour off the accumulated fat. Make the pie crust and use only 1/2 of the recipe, freeze the other half for future use. Cover with the crust and return to the oven for 45 minutes, or until the top crust is golden brown and flaky.
• Allow to cool completely before serving.
• This is great for a first course, a midnight snack, or a luncheon dish.
• FOR THE BASIC EASY CRUST: In a medium size bowl stir the flour and salt together. Cut in the shortenings using a pastry blender. Keep working the flour and shortening until the mixture is rather grainy, like coarse cornmeal. Mix the egg and vinegar together and, using a wooden fork, stir the mixture into the flour. Add enough ice water so that the dough barely holds together. Place on a marble pastry board or a plastic countertop and knead for just a few turns, enough so that the dough holds together and becomes rollable.
• I roll out my dough on a piece of waxed paper. It is easy to handle that way. I sprinkle the table with water and then put a piece of waxed paper on top, this way the paper does not move around as I am rolling. If you have a marble rolling it will be even easier. If you a wooden rolling pin, be sure to dust a teaspoon of flour on it a couple of times when you are rolling out the dough.
• NOTE: This recipe will make enough dough for one 9-inch pie with two crust, top and bottom, or two single pie crusts. Serves 6.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190ºC, 370ºF, Gas Mark 5. Line a 20 cm (8 inch) ovenproof plate or foil baking dish.
• Mix flour and salt in basin, rub in fat.
• Using a knife to cut and stir, mix with cold water to form a stiff dough.
• Turn dough on to a floured surface and knead lightly.
• Roll out and use as required below.
• Divide the pastry into 2, roll out and line the plate.
• Grill or fry bacon until crisp - drain off the fat. Add bacon to the beaten eggs along with the seasoning and herbs if used.
• Pour mixture onto pastry, dampen edges and cover with the second round of pastry.
• Seal edges and decorate with pastry leaves. Make a hole in the centre and brush with beaten egg or milk.
• Bake for about 35-40 minutes until golden brown.
