Vegetarian Mince Pies Recipe

Recipe Ingredients

4 oz currants

MINCEMEAT

4 oz raisins
4 oz sultanas
2 oz cooking dates
2 oz candied peel
2 oz glace cherries
2 oz flaked almonds
1 each ripe banana, peeled
4 tbsp brandy or whisky
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp grated nutmeg
1/2 tsp mixed spice

PASTRY

8 oz flour
4 oz shortening
6 tbsp cold water

Recipe Preparation

MINCEMEAT: Mix everything together either by hand or, if you desire a
smoother texture, in a food processor. PASTRY: Rub shortening into the
flour until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add enough flour
to enable the pastry to hold together. Roll out pastry & cut into 12
cm circles. Press circles into the bottom of lightly oiled baking
tins. Fill with mincemeat & cover with another pastry circle. Press
down at the edges & make a small steam hole in the top. Bake for 10
minutes at 400F, 200C Gas 6. These pise can be frozen before baking
either in the tin or remove from tin once they are solid. Mincemeat
will keep for 1 week covered in the fridge. Makes 36 pies

 

 

Servings: 1

Food Tips of the Week

Diet tips

In planning a meal plan, the important thing is to try to cut down your ingestion of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some lower carb diet pointers:
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for deep fried foods. Although you can probably buy reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs, you can also make them by using reduced carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is hard, whizz it in the food processor using a coarse blade. Keep in an airtight container.

* Make great smoothies by using reduced carb yogurt. Yes, it’s not technically cooking, but if you adore smoothies you can make them with reduced carb yogurt and your favorite fruit. Clearly, you will need to make sure you only make use of fruit that is low in carbohydrates and use all of the fruit as the fiber is important too.

Healthy foods with carotenes
(includes carrots, collard greens and winter squash)
These orange and green vegetables and fruits have high levels of the carotenoids believed play a key role in cancer prevention, spefically cancer of the esophagus. Many are low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss program.
