Mince Pies

02/01/2008 by Nikita

This is really something which I LOVE!! Mince pies  served with evaporated milk! I really miss “Ideal Milk” from back home…but never mind…I still enjoy it with whatever evaporated milk is available! even without it, these mince pies are really great! When I eat them – no….not eat..gobble!! —- I usually enjoy them the most being a bit heated…not too much…just a few secs in the micro…. if you want to treat me, especially during Christmas time, treat me with mince pies! At the bottom of the post, there’s a link with a recipe…hope you can make some of your own! And….it’s not mince meat! like in “mince beef”!

Mincemeat is not mince meat….like in ….. beef! but….
rich vine fruits cherries and almonds that are soaked in dark Rum. Versatile throughout the year for puddings, pies or to liven up Ice Cream.

Picture of mincemeat got from this site here.

    These look like little individual serving pies, correct? Here they are usually made as full-size pies, and you just eat one slice, usually.

    hi..Dan…yes, they are small individual ones…very delicious! and yes, you usually have only one little pie too… 8)

    It’s quite easy to torture me…I think. A mince pie would most certainly make me ‘spill the beans’. I absolutely HATE it, but the rest of the household loves them, so every Christmas they make their appearance in our house.

    Hi Roer…I will join you whenever you have it and I will have yours! 🙂

    Ideal Milk, I’ve not had that for ages but I bet it would go well with Mince Pies. I know it’s early but we’ve been scuffing them in the office for the last week.

    hi Ric, believe me, these pies are really great with evaporated milk… if you know what apple tart is like with Ideal Milk, then you know what these will be like too 🙂 I’m a lover of apple tart and love it with Ideal Milk.

    I know exactly how you feel about mince pies – slightly warmed is best! I live in Spain and we use Natta creal from a squirty bottle. Yummy. Happy mince-pie eating!!

      Hi Moranna, welcome to my blog! Yes, slightly warm…I hope your Natta creal is like my Ideal milk! 🙂
