  • Yes, use the whole leek (just a confirmation post). Sorry for the delay - DH's car had broken down and he just rang (OK now).

    How thick should pastry be? :confused:
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

  • How thick should plastry be? :confused:

    It varies. Your pie will be great with anything from about 2mm to 7mm, as long as you cook it for long enough so the pastry is cooked through. I think we're aiming for about 4mm (but no need to be precise!)

    If you want to calculate the cubic capacity of your 500g, and the area you're going to cover, you can work out the (uncooked) thickness you're going to end up with! :rotfl:
