How to made a New Zealand Bacon & Egg Pie - It's a Kiwi classic! Using My Bistro Pie Maker 

Thank you 😊

Thank you 😊

Exactly. Summer time memories too ☝️

Cheers. My mum made it this way in a big sheet pan. Loved it. It’s awesome cold with ketchup too … in my mind 😀

@@bentobuster6995 thats how my mum made at as well,, we would go on picnics and have it luke warm or cold for lunch after swiming in the river... awesome days bro back then

@@graemematthews746 same here. Great to hear that. Excellent memories 👍

That’s what I grew up on. I see in another recipe sometimes blobs of tomato relish are added. So there are slight variations.

Just got back from nZ. Bought an industrial individual bacon and egg tin thst the bakery uses so will be making them exactly to scale. Saw a recipe there that a little relish is added but my family never did it that way.

It doesn’t takes Ike boiled eggs, the oils for the bacon and pastry transform it to another level of egg.

Nice! i made one recently on RU-vid shorts. I got a commercial pie tin from NZ. This combo of ingredients is what my mother used so I like it. Peas are a bit controversial but they as a burst of sweetness. I see in NZ some cafes as a dollop of eg tomato relish in too. I haven’t done that yet. I’d rather it in the side or with ketchup. Shortcut pastry for base then puff pastry for top is what I’m doing in my individual pie tins. My mum used puff pastry for the base and top.

My mum always put a few green peas in. But I never knew to some it’s really controversial but it really adds to the flavor. I had a pie in nZ in august from a bakery without them. Must say I prefer the addition of green peas ( and mushrooms) just the way I’ve always had it.

@@bentobuster6995 peas always add 😍

@@robertbarnier45 exactly 👍

It’s on amazon Japan usually for a good price.

back home here in NZ we get Sunbeam good quality kitchen appliances and they have 2 and 4 pie makers. Just ordered a 4 so I can make loads of these!

No problem. It’s a classic.

In Japan every thing is tiny. We can’t easily get the western size appliances. My food processor is tiny. Hardly fits anything inside it.

nothing like L & P on a summers day

Great to hear 👍 I think mine takes 15 minutes according to the instructions. Simple ingredients, and a very flavorful pie. Goes well with ketchup or brown sauce.

Bacon n egg pies are a favorite of mine since childhood

good idea! thanks

Nice. I love bacon & egg pies. Very nice warmed up or cold the next day.

Ha ha thank you 😊

@@bentobuster6995 my ex wife is from Lower Hut but I forgive you. Quick question is the bacon pre cooked beforehand?

@@feralgrandad4429 my mum always adds uncooked bacon. So I do it that way. We also add a scattering of green peas and slice mushrooms 🍄 … but many people think that’s bizarre. But it tastes great with them. I bought a bacon and pie at Xmas in NZ, but my version is far better. Lower Hutt? Yep I’m from Wellington so I know there.

Definitely 👍

Thanks I sense you are a Kiwi too

The temperature of that pie is nuclear inside. If you want that go for it.

I put up the link so you can get the details and look around

You could try to cook it in a regular oven, if you can find a pie dish of that shape. However, I read elsewhere that if the dish is too deep, there might be problems cooking it or getting the stuff out.

Those pies are the same shape as a Melton Mobray pork pie. Have you ever tried making a pork pie before? I would like to see your recipe.

You can use a large muffin pan. I do, and it works.

no finger prints...

@@bentobuster6995 I got this same pie maker in red and I'm gonna be trying your recipe out first. Nice one, subbed. :D

@@WizardOfTheKremlin sweet. I also putJapanese beef stew in it, it’s pretty handy.

Cheers 🥂

@@gailcurl8663 a quiche is filled with a savory custard. Alas it’s a bacon and egg pie.

Saw it going for $12 at another shop

@@bentobuster6995 Wow that's a steal!

Hi I guess it’s probably from the Uk but we have had then in NZ all my life so it’s worked it’s way into nZ cuisine.

@@bentobuster6995 Lovely Pies Love NZ.

@@LouisBack yes, and the pies where are getting super. Im going back at xmas, I will try a few

@@bentobuster6995 How about some Turkey , Chicken and Ham pies ?

@@LouisBack yes, btw as a fan I can’t resist a pork pie and a scotch pie

It’s a pie machine

ru-vid.comPxtTSCBzTTw?si=6aOjZYhZdSlb8XCf there you go

@@bentobuster6995 either way, looks good 👌🏻

I only do that for sweet pies.

Umm I will look for the link I got it for $20 but I saw it for $12 today on an electronic shop site. I will search amazon and unload a link in the description box

Yes 👍

Hmmm… well You can pouch an egg, freeze it then add it and it will defrost as it cooks. The Japanese do that with runny eggs in fried curry donuts. It might take a couple of times to get it right. And possibly more trouble than it’s worth. If always had it this way though.

Hi No it isn’t. Just put it in uncooked. It will cook inside the pie. Also Often this pie is made in a big sheet tray. Then you cut out squares and eat it. So there are various sizes.

@@bentobuster6995 thanks for taking the time to reply, most appreciated.

@@sdm197 it’s a really tasty pie. I really recommend it. Also So easy to make. I love it to eat it hot or cold with some ketchup. Make sure you put some green peas and mushrooms in. They add to it 👍

I’ve never had cheese in one. So have never thought about it. It’s so good as is.

we love cheese, cheese is usually in everything but not the classic bacon & egg though...interesting

@@bentobuster6995 the bacon definetaly packs a punch without it, but a couple eggs scrambled with a slice of chedder while the eggs are cooking is delicious. most places just put a bit of cheese on top of plain scrambled eggs.

@@homus45 I recommend you try these sometime. Awesome cold as well ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CmbXWCgOwxc.html

@@crickethartley9121 well it’s really hot in there. Unbelievably hot. Handling it can be difficult due to the temperature. I use a towel.

Well That’s standard puff pastry from Australia. It’s a bacon and egg pie as you know so usually made in a sheet pan etc. Not sure where you are getting your “think” pasty from. Perhaps you are imagining shortcrust pasty as in a regular mince or steak pie but this isn’t that type of pie. Sorry…

Hey we are from Yorkshire…

We have always had peas in it, its great when you find one...oh a pea!

Peas are mandatory for kiwi breaky pie mate!

Always give peas a chance
