Directions
English Stilton and Twice Baked Potato Picnic Pies – Pasties, This is such a wonderful and easy recipe, especially if you are Stilton cheese and potato fans, as we are! Just slice up pre-cooked potatoes, add a slice of Stilton, season and bake in a pastry case, and there you have it a great snack, lunch or picnic food extraordinaire! Serve them with assorted chutneys, pickles, salads or even MORE potatoes for a very tasty meal I have stipulated ready-made shortcrust pastry, but puff pastry would also work well Ingredients are listed for 4 people – however, this recipe is easy to multiply or reduce, according to your potato and Stilton supplies!!, This is so good, I did do a few things different though Made two according to recipe Good Made another two put a touch of prepared mustard on the bottom sheet, and also sprinkle green onion on They were also very good I can see where this simple recipe with a green salad is worth having a glass of wine with even for late lunch Thanks, FT – this was exceptional! We loved it – added some sliced mushrooms, made it into one large pie – and it made a great dinner Thanks for posting
