Corned beef pie

[sherrardk]

I want to make corned beef pie but all the recipes I have seen are not the ones I want (I want to make one like my Gran used to make). I am planning on mashing the potatoes and corned beef together but can't remember if there should be onion in, any ideas?

I will make it my mission to try spam. I like mushy peas....

I will NOT eat corned beef from a tin. My nan used to make corned beef sammidges for the pool/dart teams.....bleaghhhhh.

Hi sherrard -my mum is 86 and this is her recipe for the filling

Peel and dice about 1/2 inch cubes 3 medium potatoes and steam for roughly 10 mins - chop/mash up 1 can corned beef place in large bowl -finely chop 1/2 sweet onion -raw -and add to corned beef -add hot steamed pots to corned beef and stir well but do not fully mash. Add seasoning to taste leave to cool and then fill pie. Cook in hot oven until pastry is cooked -about 30 mins. Serve with gravy and peas.
