Hi, I make a Pek and Egg Pie which is absolutely delicious so you could use the chopped pork as a replacement for the Pek.

Basically I chop up the meat, add 5 or 6 boiled eggs quartered and cover in a cheese sauce with a bit of wholegrain mustard stirred through. Top the whole lot with some mash and bake in the oven until the top goes all crispy. Guarenteed clean plates in my house!

Hope that helps, cheers x:)

Ham and mushroom pie, ham and cheese bake, quiche, ham and leek pie, fried slices with egg, ham and chips...anything you can use ham for, you can more or less also use the chopped pork for, but if it's salty, cut the salt out of the rest of the recipe....

I don't know if it's the same thing but we used to have fritters when I was a child. Generous slice of chopped pork, dipped in batter and fried. Totally unhealthy but absolutely yummy!!

It might be worth trying freezing some slices too. It works with HM gammon.

When you come to tackle the corned beef mountain.... It might be worth making some pasties and mini-pies as these would be great for packed lunches. I also like corned beef mixed with mash and onion and made into rissoles.

Same thing

Corned beef pies can be frozen too once they're cooked, or frozen uncooked, the same for pasties, my father does it every christmas.
