Another one of the weird obsessional foods I learnt to love after spending some time in England. Why they are called 'mince' is a whole other can of worms!

Anyhoo, I actually found some of the little darlings on a recent trip to Bangkok in the food hall in Siam Paragon. I was hoping that I would be able to get them in Tops in KK....now I'm wishing I had stocked up on a few more packs!

Maybe because the fruit and suet has been minced, the name sort of gives it away.

They're called mince pies because they used to contain minced meat. Now the meat is only suet, ie the fat from round the kidneys.

I make my own mince with dried fruits and use butter instead of suet. So I can have tarts as well as pies!
