Before Using Your Double Pie Maker
4

1. Ensure your Double Pie Maker and pastry cutter is clean and dry.
2. Position your Double Pie Maker on a at surface or table close to a plug
socket.
3. Plug the power lead into a suitable plug socket; this will automatically turn
the machine on.
4. Close your Pie Maker and pre-heat it for a few minutes. The green and red
lights will be illuminated indicating that the machine is preheating. When the
green indicator light switches off the machine is ready to use.
5. Once ready to use make sure that each pie cavity (upper and lower) has
been coated with an oil spray. REMEMBER that the baking plates are very
hot; do not touch these with your hands.
6. On a clean and dry surface sprinkle a little our and roll out your pastry. Cut
two pastry bases and two pastry tops using each side of the double sided
pastry cutter.
7. Carefully insert the pie bases to the bottom casing of your Double Pie Maker.
8. Spoon your pie lling into each pie base ensuring you ll them just above
the rim.
9. Next add your pie tops and for a glazed nish you can brush a little egg or
milk over the tops..
10. Carefully close the lid and clip shut the latch and allow your pies to bake for
at least 5 minutes before checking them.
11. Steam will come out of the machine as your pies cook, this is normal.
12. During cooking the temperature regulating thermostat maintains an even
temperature. You may therefore notice the indicator light ickering.
13. After 5 minutes you can open the machine to see how your pies are
cooking. If your pies look golden and the pastry is fully cooked then they are
ready. If not simply close the lid for another 1-3 minutes.
14. Once your pies are ready switch off the machine and leave to cool for a few
minutes before removing them with a wooden, silicone or plastic utensil.
15. Serve your pies immediately.

PASTRY
You can always make a few batches of pastry at once and freeze any
extra (wrapped in cling lm) until needed. Shop bought fresh and frozen
Shortcrust or Puff pastry work perfectly well with the Gourmet Gadgetry
Pie Maker, however if you would prefer to use homemade pastry we have
supplied a great recipe for Shortcrust below.
Shortcrust Pastry Recipe
Ingredients:
200g plain our
100g unsalted butter (cubed)
A pinch of salt
2-4 tablespoons of cold water
Preparation Method:
1. Sift the our and salt into a large mixing bowl.
2. Add the cubes of butter to the bowl, then using your ngers rub them in until
the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs with no large lumps of butter re-
maining.
3. Making a well in the mix, add 2 tablespoons of the cold water, mixing with a
knife until you have rm rough dough. Only add the extra water if needed.
4. Cover your pastry with cling lm and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes before
using.
5. Once your pastry is ready, sprinkle a little our over your work surface and roll
the pasty out with a rolling pin. You will need about 150g of pastry per pie,
depending on how thick you like it to be. Using the pastry cutter cut the pastry
tops and bases ready to be used in the machine.

Pie & Pastry Recipe Suggestions
1. In a pan on a medium heat melt the knob of butter before adding the steak and
onions, gently sauté for a minute.
2. Add the broccoli and peas to the pan, mixing in well, and allowing the mixture to
sauté for another couple of minutes, until the meat is brown and the vegetables
are a little tender.
3. Spoon enough mixture into each pie base before seasoning with salt and
pepper, and spooning over some of the gravy.
4. Brush the top of each pastry base with beaten egg before adding the pastry top.
5. Brush each pastry top with a little of the beaten egg before closing the lid. Don’t
open the machine for the rst ve minutes whilst the pie is forming. Depending
on how much mixture has been added the pie will take between 6-8 minutes to
cook.

PIE FILLINGS
When lling the pies, spoon your chosen mixture into the pie base, making sure you ll
each pie just above the rim. Any sauce or gravy that you are using should be thick in
consistency; anything with too much liquid will make the base of the pie soggy. We
suggest using Shortcrust pastry for savoury llings and Puff pastry for sweet llings.
You can use canned meat or fruit, try our suggestions below or why not try and be
adventurous by creating your own recipes for llings. All of the suggestions below will
be more than enough to ll between three to four pies.
Steak & Veg Pie Recipe
Ingredients:
150g beef steak cut into small pieces
2x heads of broccoli broken into small pieces
1x tablespoon of peas
¼ of an onion chopped
50ml of thick pre-made gravy

Salt & Pepper to season
