    Well done Zara, that is a great achievement! And I do not think you are sad at all.

    Thank you for sharing. It brought back lovely memories of learning to bake with
    my Nan, well over fifty years ago now, how she encouraged me, made light of my disasters "it will be alright covered in custard" and "don`t worry it all goes down the same way"

    My very first success was an apple pie, beautiful golden thing that it was, my
    Nan served the custard separate so that everyone would see it. How proud I
    was.

    I am a Nan myself now and love to cook, I taught my DD and DS and love
    baking sessions with my Grandchildren.

    Keep up the good work love and again many thanks for your post, its made
    my day.

    wd Zara :j - we all start somewhere - my first baking success was a Victoria Sandwich Cake (about 30yrs ago) and I can remember how proud I felt at the time :grin:.

    For easy to follow recipes (well tried and tested over the years) have you seen the Be-ro website? http://www.be-ro.com/f_insp.htm - it's well worth a look when you're ready to have a go at something else.
  • Well done Zara!
    I'm just starting out on making and baking too and you've inspired me to be a bit more adventurous ... pasties? That's impressive :T and sounds really yummy (any chance of recipe and your tips for success ? ;))

    Not sad at all - a lovely post x

    Thanks

    My lot love pasties but I havent a clue as to how to make them.

    Well done on your achievement. Im wanting to start lots of my own baking too, and cant wait until ive done something that I feel very proud of.

    Can you post pics too? (if there are any pasties left lol)

    Fabulous.

    I made jam yesterday and today I'm making scones to go with it for pudding tonight.

    I totally love cheese and onion pasties. They never make it through the night, unfortunately.

    What I do now is to slice pastry up into single servings and freeze it like that - so I can make just 2 at a time; otherwise I end up pigging out on them. Yum.

    I don't suppose thatyou have a recipe for them do you?

    Cheese and Onion pasties are one of my favourite foods ever and I would love to know how to make them myself.

    Thank you.

    Mine is:
    Shortcrust Pastry - but you can use flaky.

    Roll and cut into circles.

    Seasoned grated cheese and onion mix - spoon into middle, seal sides with water and bake.

    Get pastry frozen - it really saves oodles of time and effort. I make loads of home made stuff; but pastry - nah!


    Add boiled cubed potatoes for a more substantial filling. Add a few spices if you like it spicy; chilli, or garam masala for an Indian twist.
