Minted Lamb Pie

Full product description

Bright, buttery and full of comfort, our minted lamb pie is packed with slow-cooked British lamb in a glossy gravy lifted with fresh mint. Tucked under a golden puff pastry lid, it bakes to flaky perfection and fills the kitchen with Sunday-lunch aromas. Lovely with mash and greens, just as good with chips and a spoon of mint sauce. Weeknight easy, guests-worthy results.

FAQs

Is the mint strong?
Balanced and fresh, designed to lift the lamb rather than overpower it.

Shortcrust base or puff lid only?
This pie features a puff pastry lid (base may vary by batch—check label).

Can I air fry it?
If it fits your basket: 170–180°C until the pastry is golden and the centre is piping hot. Cover lightly with foil if colouring too quickly.

How many does it serve?
Guides vary: individual (1), medium (2–3), large (4+).
