Ok I grew up poor. But we was never hungry and everyone in the family knows how to make everything taste amazing and nothing goes to waste. Chorley Cakes are simple example. You can make a batch of these from scretch and they are amazing but I have just made a Quiche and have a little pasty left. Over to Mum and Grandma. Make an amazing little cake or 2 and keep for later. Truely Amazing - Thanks guys.

  3. 3

    Heat oven to 180c (mine of course is cooked same time as Quiche (dont want waste more power :P). Wash the pastry with more milk and then sprinkle a little more sugar ontop. Use a small knife to cut a few slits in the top to let out any steam. And bake for 20 minutes or until Golden BRown. Allow to cool !!!! THESE ARE HOT.
