Many moons ago I attempted to make pastry - rather dismally. It just would not do what it was supposed to - I couldn't roll it out without ripping it to shreds, it was soggy and just not good!. I pigeon-holed myself as "not able to make pastry" and haven't tried again.
Until tonight..

Now that I'm quite good at making bread and adept at making pasta, I thought I'd try again with a Destitute Gourmet recipe for Plymouth Pie (basically meat pie).
It rolled out perfectly - I was even able to roll it onto the rolling pin to drape over the pie dish without it ripping anywhere.
It cooked perfectly - not soggy and nicely crispy.
And it tasted divine - light & flaky. (The inside of the pie was yummy too!)

I think I have to say now - "I CAN make pastry!!!!"

Congrats Kez, another one to strike off the list :-)
Yay! You'll have to share the recipe or can I Google it?
Well done :)
Well done, there is a skill to making pastry, so now you have mastered a new skill. Your meat pie looks good. I am hoping to make a strawberry and rhubard pie tomorrow as its strawberry season over here and I have just cut some more rhubarb from the garden.
