With a lot of tweaking we now have the recipe that suits us. We invested in three pork pie dollies as we wanted them to look as authentic as we could. We found the art of using dollies is to cool the hot water mix for a good couple of hours in the fridge, it makes the pastry far more manageable. It is all great fun.
