Modern Redaction

Ingredients:

450–675g Roasting Beef 450–675g Roasting Pork 350g Currants 235ml Red Wine 235ml Gode Broth (made without breadcrumbs) 225g Dates, chopped 8 Egg Yolks 1 22cm Pastry case with lid
2 tbsp Sugar 1 tbsp Ginger 1½ tsp Salt


Method:

Chop the meat into small pieces then place in a saucepan and cover with the wine and broth (add extra wine and broth if required).

Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cook over medium heat until meat is heated through. Drain the meat and allow to cool slightly (reserve some of the liquid). Add the remaining ingredients to the meat and mix thoroughly. Add enough of the reserved liquid to thoroughly moisten the meat then place the mixture in the pastry case and add a lid. Create slashes in this for the steam to escape, or prick all over with a fork.

Place in an oven pre-heated to 190°C and bake for 45 minutes, or until the pastry is a golden brown.
