Delicious Dish with Helen Kingscott
Picnic pie If you’re heading on a picnic this summer, why not swap your sandwiches for this tasty pie?! You can easily make it vegetarian by subbing the bacon for another of your favourite vegetables. Serves 6-8.
Ingredients: 2 x 375g packs puff pastry 1 bunch spring onions 8-10 rashers streaky bacon 3 red peppers 6 large eggs
Method: 1 Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C/gas mark 6). 2 Slice the peppers into strips, brush with a little oil and roast in the oven for about 15 minutes.
3 Trim then chop the spring onions and fry in a little butter until soft, set aside on a plate. 4 Fry the bacon until crisp then cut into small pieces. 5 Unroll one pack of puff pastry and use to line a greased fluted flan tin 18-20cm/3-4 cm deep. 6 Scatter the red peppers, spring onion and bacon over the pastry then break the 6 eggs carefully on the top.
