Cooking with Tallyrand
apart from stew when it must be shin that is what I use for all recipes requiring cubed beef
I agree about the pastry as very important - a good filling can be spoiled by the pastry. I always buy pasties cold because keeping them in heated cases causes them to become greasy. I will have a go using skirt which is my favourite - ideal for steak and kidney pie or pudding and for the Massaman curry that I made yesterday
I have used mince before, but beef skirt like everything never used to be so expensive, it was my gran that taught me, and like she said you can bulk it out with the veg! and I was born at the end of the war so rationing was still around when I was a child.

Hi Ziggy many thanks for the comments. Photo's would make the area more colourful and interesting I agree, unfortunatley I am hoping to make this section of dawlish.com a fairly interactive area. Supplying recipes and ideas requested by the readers, so while I have 1000's and 1000's of recipes I have collected from all over the world (all personally tried and tested by myself) I do not have ...
