I have baked savoury pies (using Jamie Oliver’s Steak and Guinness recipe), but never sweet?
Glossy beer and beef pie
It is time… I have spent around two days dreaming up pie combinations.
Caramel and cherry? This is The Idea I have been toying with. And because of the immense sweetness, it would have to be a small tart, and not so much a pie.
Dark chocolate, hazelnut and orange: this idea grabs me. Basically blanched and roasted hazelnuts, dark chocolate ganache and orange rind, almost layering the filling into a thin pie base.
Short crust though, will be the end of me, this is where I get unstuck. When I consider short crust pastry, I feel as if I should stick to a tarte tatin. And here is the recipe I plan on using: http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/pastry-cake/the-world-famous-tarte-tatin
Bless you Mr Oliver, you have taught me all I need to know about pies!
Worth a try I’d think.
Updates to follow soon :-)
