Scotch Pie - Aiming for Perfection

Scotch pies are very popular at football matches in Scotland, and in chippies too. They have a recess in the top where you can conveniently hold some gravy or beans. Traditionally, the filling of a Scotch Pie is mutton or lamb, but beef is sometimes used. The pastry is very thin and crispy and soaks up the fat from the meat as it cooks. Scotch pies are wonderful things, but not the easiest pies to make. One factor people talk about in making great Scotch Pies is letting the pastry cases rest in the fridge for up to 3 days. In this video I test different resting times for the pastry cases.
