Pies were originally sold by piemen on the streets of London in Victorian times. They would be filled with eels, one of the only fish that survived the polluted River Thames.

Pie pastry
The pie has two different types of pastry a suet pastry base and a shortcrust pastry lid. When rolling out make sure to keep the suet base big enough to fit into the pie tins and the shortcrust lids big enough to overlap the tin. The shortcrust pastry lid for the mince beef pie should be be thinner than the suet pastry bottom. There will be extra suet pastry left, use it to help shape the pie base into the greased tins.
Pie mince beef filling
Inside the pie is a simple easy to make minced beef and stock filling which also has browning in to give the pies a deep meaty colour. Add this mince beef filling into the pastry base. Wet the edges down very well before placing lids on top. When placing the pie lid on top stretch it over the sides and push to seal the edges before trimming away excess pastry. Seal the top of pie with milk, or just water will work too.
Mash
The mash served with the minced beef pie and liquor is a simple plain mashed potato with no milk or butter added.

The final must-have is a splash of vinegar, use malt vinegar or if you want it like a real East End or Essex pie mash and liquor shop, make yourself some of o...
