    List of Ingredients




    2 lb. pork cut in small dice
    1 and 1/2 lb. flour
    1 egg
    1 lb. lard
    A little milk and water mixed
    Salt and pepper to taste

    Recipe



    Rub half the quantity of lard into the flour with a little salt. Boil
    the rest of the lard with the milk and water. When boiling, pour half
    over the flour and stir well, then add the egg (beaten well) and pour
    over the rest of the liquid. Knead the mixture and leave to stand for a
    few minutes. Line a mould or tin, and put in the pork with a little
    pepper and salt and a little water. Roll out the rest of the pastry and
    cover the top of the pie and decorate the edge. Brush over with a little
    egg and bake for 2 hours, starting with a very hot oven and reducing the
    heat. Make a stock of the bones and trimmings of the meat until it
    jells. Pour into a hole in the centre of the pie with a funnel when
    lukewarm. Serve cold.
