RabC Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 The soggy bottom was caused by under cooking. I think you can get these Steak Cut chips at Makro. Cheers for the info on the chips, the soggy bottom comment was just a joke on the supposed properties of baked beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realfunster Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I work for a Smithfield butcher back in London, but am on a 3 month break with mrs TF at the moment. 4 years ago the last time I was out here for over 3 years near the end of my stay I found a good family run business towards the outskirts of BKK on on nut rd. sadly the fella that owed the business had just passed away and his thai wife was not sure if she was going to keep on running the outlet. Would appreciate it if anyone has any info. As for the London pie company, likewise, what's his background info etc........? Cheers, tigerfishjanny. Sounds like Bunters to me. Thanks for all the pie tips - hope to drop in for a Cornish at W district shortly ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepshank Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 A bit OT, but in answer to RabC at post 49; my Isaan kitchen is like a furnace all year round but I still manage to knock out stacks of pukka "Cornish" pasties for me and my mates. The secret is you don't need to keep your kitchen at 18 deg C, you need to keep the pastry you are rolling at 18 deg C, which is a whole lot different. So, make your shortcrust pastry in your usual way, then wrap it in clingfilm and bung it in the fridge for a couple of hours to let it harden up. I often leave pastry in the fridge overnight and roll it out the following morning. When you are ready to make your pasties, remove the block of chilled pastry from the fridge, unwrap the block and cut off enough pastry to make one pasty. Re-cover the block and return it to the fridge. Place the lump you have cut off between two sheets of waxed/silicone paper on a clean chopping board and roll out the pastry to your desired thickness. Carefully peel off the top sheet of paper and put it to one side. Turn the bottom sheet over (with the rolled pastry attached) and place it face down on a second, floured, chopping board. Peel off the lower sheet , place the filling on the rolled out pastry, fold and crimp as normal and slide the pasty onto a baking tray. Repeat the process as many times as you like depending on the quanitity of pastry/filling you have. The thing is you can re-use the sheets of paper until they rip/disentigrate then you tear another sheet off the roll an continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i claudius Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 in repie to your quest to find a decent pie outlet I buy my pies from the friendship supermarket in pattaya a firm called the bakery who have exceedingly good pies no complaints so far good luck. I was in Friendship the other day ,i am not sure of the makes of pie ,but there were two suppliers one were quite cheap ,about 45 baht ,they had a curry pie and a chicken ,then there were some priced about 90 baht , they are not bad ,but i thought i would try the curry one and the wife had a chicken , i can honestly say they were the most disgusting things i had ever eaten , we both took a bite and threw them in the bin , awfull truly awfull.

Google "Pieminister". Don't think I've seen any Asian people eat "pies"? Are there SE-Asian equivalents in Thailand, LOS, Vietnam or China? Whereas sausages seem to be made and eaten nearly everywhere on the planet. RAZZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
