Rabbit Pie ! And, for the purists, made with shortcrust pastry, NOT puff pastry ! ? ! Cheers.

Family get together at ours, so a bit of a spread.. 13 hour cooked brisket, slow cooked pork shoulder.. Home made coleslaw, stuffing, roasties... and a 2 day hangover! Lol

Treat off my dad tonight, he's a friend on the fresh fish stall up town... Scallops and lemon sole fillets...

This in my opinion is the only way but it’s a big debate about poaching eggs throwing them into water is an injustice to chickens but here goes.

First off you need a traditional poacher with the little plastic inserts you fill the poacher with just enough water to produce steam not too much as it can boil over into the eggs which is disaster, then you grease the plastic holders with butter you drop your eggs in turn on gas don’t pre heat water nothing like that go from cold, then you put your toast in toaster usually by the time the toast is cooked buttered and of course had marmite put on, egg yolk and marmite heaven lol, your eggs should be ready usually about three and a half to four minutes but don’t have the gas to high a gentle simmer.

Then it has to pass what I call the wobblebility test a little shake on the handle slight firmness but not snotty and because you have pre greased the holders they should just slide out perfectly.

As you can tell I don’t take it too seriously lol 😂

Thanks mate. Gonna try that but without the plastic. I’ve got metal and ceramic ramekins that should do the trick just as good ;)
