lurcherboy Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Now then, my rottie is a brilliant cook, but, she has never cracked scutail pie. She makes a wicked scut/pheasent/pigeon pie but can't do so well on the solo effort. So if any of you have the perfect recipe, please post it as I will be up to my eyes in scutails tonight if all goes well If you are still visiting Hammergun, I would appreciate your input, cheers mate LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And whatever you do dont tell her I said that. :( They are those wonderful little dough biscuts that you use to sop up gravy at the dinner table. Geezer me...at least I am not 54..

Axe Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Rabbit Pie Ingredients 1 rabbit a few slices ham or bacon salt and white pepper to taste 2 blades pounded mace 7½ tsp grated nutmeg a few forcemeat balls 2 hard-boiled eggs 300ml/½ pt gravy puff pastry crust Method 1. Cut up the rabbit (which should be young), remove the breast-bone and bone the legs. 2. Put the rabbit, slices of ham, forcemeat balls and hard-boiled eggs, by turns, in layers, and season each layer with pepper, salt, pounded mace and grated nutmeg. 3. Pour in about 300ml/½pt water, cover with a pastry crust, and bake in a well-heated oven for about 1½hour. Should the crust acquire too much colour, place a piece of paper over it to prevent it from burning. 4. When done, pour in at the top, by means of the hole in the middle of the crust, a little good gravy, which may be made of the breast and leg bones of the rabbit and 2 or 3 shank-bones, flavoured with onion, herbs and spices.

Axe Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 (edited) hmm id better go check the recipe! :*) Later on that day ............ Hmmm, well ok, the recipe requires you to build up layers and season with each layer with the nutmeg. So I guess its an idea of how much will be used but you don't need to use it all. If you really are in doubt just add a teaspoon. :thumbs: Edited November 29, 2005 by Axe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_seagrave Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Nutmeg is an hallucinogen - perhaps everyone who eats your bunny pie thinks that it is actually foie gras. Or pink elephants. :thumbs: LS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
