    THIS Chicken Basque and it was vile.

    I didn't quite gag when I ate it, but that's the only plus remark I can make about the dish. Total waste of time, ingredients & money.

    Never have been a fan of Delia, but I stumbled upon this and thought this sounded nice......won't be making that mistake again!

    Hi

    For a Corned Beef plate pie i use:

    8oz S/R Flour
    2oz Marg
    2oz Lard
    1/2 tsp salt
    Enough iced water to bring all the above together.

    1 200g tin of refridgerated corned beef
    2lb boiled potatoes
    Salt and black cracked pepper

    I make the pastry whilst the potatoes boil and the recipe is enough to make a base and lid.

    I cube the corned beef into a bowl and add the hot boiled potatoes and mash together this way with salt and cracked black pepper. I DONOT add any marg as the corned beef has enough fat content to make the mash ok.

    I put in the preheated oven Gas 6 for 20 mins.
