Today I made pie. Recipe follows, mainly for my own reference, as I don't usually make pies, and it seemed to turn out quite well.

Pastry: 6oz flour, 3oz margarine, salt, some water
Filling: 9oz quorn mince, an onion, clove of garlic, several mushrooms, half pint veg stock, some ketchup, quite a lot of red wine, oregano, basil, salt/pepper to taste, some oil

Made pastry first, lined greased bread tin with sheets of it (about 3mm thick, I suppose), kept final sheet aside for top. Fried chopped onion and garlic, added mince and stock, added chopped mushrooms. Added other seasonings and wine intermittently. I suppose it simmered for about 10 mins.

Preheated oven to 220C; ladled filling into pastry case (it just about filled it); put sheet of pastry over top and sealed edges. Made small hole with knife in middle of pastry. Cooked pie for 10 mins, then reduced heat to 190C and cooked for another half hour. Served with Bisto gravy (which is actually vegetarian anyway).

Serves, well, more than 2 people (we couldn't finish it!) G liked it.
