My dad had a English cafe' serving English food to workmen. It was phenomenally successful back in the 60s and 70s. His secret was he used fresh everything and in quantity and made his own pies to a very high standard filling them with meat and gravy. He had a special machine that looked like a 1950s space rocket with lots of shelves where he placed the pies to cooking. I remember he charged 11p for a cup of tea which is about 40p today.
The oven pie looked the best, hopefully there will be instructions on all packaging for airfryers soon so we have a better idea on cooking times. Good experiment Gareth !
The oven one was definitely the best, but the air fryer one wasn't bad. I think it's like other people have said about turning them over so the underside gets cooked.
I always cook pies and sausage rolls in the oven, but I use a mini oven instead of the main oven. It heats up far quicker and uses less electricity in total.
@@jennigee51I got a small ninja air fryer and it's not bad. Cooks things way faster than a normal oven or a countertop one and gets at least as good results or better. Only thing that's faster is a microwave but it's only good to pre thaw in my opinion so the air fryer finishes it off really quick
Hi Gareth, just a note. If your microwave is of less wattage than instructed on the packaging, then you would need to increase the time slightly and not decrease it. However, it turned out ok. Happy pies.
Really enjoy your video’s very informative and entertaining 😂. Just one point to note, your microwave is 800W therefore you should have given the pie longer to cook not less time than an 850 W for 3mins 👍
I grew up in South Wales, and I loved the way our Italian-run cafés cooked their meat pies - with a special nozzle attached to the coffee machine and the other end stuck into a hole cut in the pie-crust. They'd use the steam to cook the pies "inside-out" for several minutes, until the filling was piping hot and the pie-case moist and soft. The result was almost like a suet pudding, but without using suet pastry. Delicious!
It’s the science Gareth, the science! I love these experiments and watching to see how they turn out. I’ve never had Holland’s pies before and they look really good and full, I also love steak and kidney pies, however; it’s been years since I have had one. Another invaluable review pal, totally first class. Thank you.
cheers John, very kind mate, try one see what you think. Cheap and cheerful they are. I must admit im sure they were much better years ago. All the best.
Hello Gareth, I cook pies in my halogen oven on the low rack. I cook my bacon on the high rack, all the fat goes into the bottom of the bowl and it makes my bacon nice and crispy, just how I like it.
I'm from Carlisle and i have to say your videos are a bit of a guilty pleasure. My mum asked what i was watching and i said just some bald guy from Barrow eating pies. Bit weird but class content. Used to play sports tornements down in Barrow with my school.
Thanks Gareth great review mate. I love steak and kidney my favourite pie , never tried Hollands , Don’t do them where I live , Fleur de lys pies and Pukka are the popular brands. Obviously the best way is in the oven . Top tip for doing in microwave, Wrap pie or pastie or slice in kitchen roll cooked on full power fur six minutes, then leave to cool down for at least five minutes, The pastry will be lovely and crispy. Thanks Gareth see you on the next one . 👍
Can't beat Holland's steak and kidney pies. Had them for as long as I can remember. Tried microwaving, but oven is better. Pie in the middle of a bowl of soup is spot on .
Not had pie and soup for years my old man used to do me that on a Saturday afternoon before we went out when I was a nippa, some memories flooded back when you said that
Hi gaz,me and shaz have a strict vegan diet monday to friday..then we eat whatever we fancy at weekends!..usually what u have reviewed in the week!..🤣👍..it keeps our wieght down and keeps us healthy but weekends are so special..gaz and shaz..spot on..👍👍
Hi, Gareth. Just catching up with your reviews. Another interesting review. Everything looked very nice indeed. Keep up the good work from a windy Scotland.
Hi Gareth, the Ninja cooks more from the top where the fan is. All you need to do is flip the pie over for the last 5-7 minutes of cooking and the bottom will be done as good as the top 👍🏻
When our children were small I made all of the meals myself as money was tight and meat had to go a long way. Minced beef was economical and great for a lot of things, spaghetti Bolognese, cottage pie, meat pies, chilli etc, the list goes on. Back then we didn't have freezers and our children weren't faddy eaters because the choice was so limited.
I like your comment. Food should be appreciated, savoured and never wasted particualry during these times we are living in which are getting worse. It looks as though you defientley have that in mind like I do. Fair play to you.
Such a learning curve, will try the turn over, never thought 😂, wondering if other Ninja user's have gotten used to burnt dinner's I will not give up 🤣🌹🖖
We all have our local favourites, im originally from Stoke-on-Trent and Wrights pies are my faves, meat & tatter….and steak & Kidney.💛 tomatoe soup over for a variation 👍🏽
Foil in microwaves Haha, I have experience of that. After my mum died and I was home cooking I found that Microwave custard cost twice as much as cardboard cartons of custard so I took a carton home poured half the contents in a dish put a chunk of apple pie on microwaved it and ate it. next day decided to chop up a Banana and some oranges microwaved the rest of the custard in the cardboard carton two minutes later its on fire inside the microwave. The carton was lined with foil! No damage however custard is a good fire extinguisher.
Hi Gareth hope all's well. Great video again today too 😀 I love steak and kidney pie 😋😋 where we get ours is a farm shop, they make their own there. Always chunks of steak and kidney, no skimping. Those wee pies You cooked looked nicely filled 😋 Hope you enjoyed them while watching the birds 💖 Take care and stay safe 😘xxx
@@BaldFoodieGuy our local one delivered our order during the lock down, they also supply their pies to a butchers nearby, the butcher also in turn does deliveries 🚚 They’re a brilliant butchers, they win awards for their Pork sausages and Vegetable Roll 😋 😋 xx
Great video mate thankyou. I think with the rise in energy costs starting to hit everyone. The microwave is probably the cheapest option. All the best cheers Lee
Gareth always had Holland pie's growing up now so many pie's to choose from they look tasty so enjoy watching your reviews best foodie friendly happy guy, ♥️😋😋😋
for the air fryer, i'd suggest, going with the fan temp and lower time, if you can't work it out, for example for those pies i'd have chose 180 for 30 minutes, take 2 minutes off the lower time
Ur rite Gareth this is cheap easy convenient food I like it and if you ain't got a lot of money and a few bairns to feed nowt wrong pith it with a bit of mash n a few veg
Fantastic review Gareth 👏. I've never had a hollands pie 🥧 that I know . It's Peters pies or clarks pies in Wales I'll have to see if I can get hold of them . Had those 2x spicy noodles lunch time . 🔥 📛 they were flaming spicy .
Definitely the oven for me with as you said some oven chips but I have got to get an air fryer great review gareth it's just a pitty Holland's don't do just a steak pie as I don't like offal kidney and liver yuk 👍👍🥧🥧
Holland's are bring out some new pies next week. They look more gourmet. There's a steak and gravy, also a chicken and gravy. Think they're frozen not sure. They're in black boxes
I never put pastry anywhere near the Microwave as it always goes soggy, oven would be my choice mostly, but air frying I use the basket rather than the rack, nice looking pies them 👍
🏴👏 I love this review I’ve got 2 air fryers a Ninja and a tower. Ninja every time for chips and chicken wings and the tower for my fish , burgers & pies 👏🏴
Never cooked a pie in the microwave, not a lover of soft pastry. I only ever go for an oven pie. This was an interesting watch though and I think the good old oven won on the day. G treat review though!💕🤩👍
Hi Gareth. Another great video, but you made a mistake on the microwave time! 3minutes for 850W would be 3m12s for 800W not 2m45s... Not sure if an extra 27s would have made the pastry any less soggy but it might have done? Maybe you can try again with the 4th pie?
You are correct yes it was in for 3 mins in the end, so only a few seconds off the time. Well spotted Graham, i sometimes make a few mistakes. Apologies.
Interesting experiment as well. Microwave might be more convenient, but is it worth putting the oven on just for a pie ? Probably need to throw some other stuff in there while you were at it.
Your a star. I love your posts especially the comparison ones. I’ve been trying to economise due to the cost of living crisis & im really interested in what can be cooked in the actifry. I’m on my own & my actifry is extreamly basic. I’d be really interested in comparison posts particularly those cooked in the actifry. I shop at Tesco, Aldi & Freeze Factory on the market

Nice one mate…any chance of doing same with sausages grill,air fry,frying,grilling,oven…because I’ve limited health and standing at cooker turning sausages is a pain,but seem to get the other ways wrong either to much heat or not enough..take care and thanks for the videos,enjoy your honesty and down to earth way.

To all readers with lecky going thru the roof no one in there right mind will use a full oven for 30 min for 1 pie . It’s gonna be the microwave at 3/3.5 min An as most have found out chops batt fish bangers pies chips etc in the airF Ovens are for big joints etc . My daughter got 4 A fryers lol so well off an only uses them lol
Eh up Gazza hows tha doin. I've now got to the point where I watch your videos and salivate. I think your trying to persuade me to come back to blighty. Amazing video. In fact it was spot on. If I was your lecky meter I'd be dizzy. Cooking in t'oven n microwave and air fryer. Thank you for all the content you bring. Thas a gudd un mate.
Brown sauce not bad but you should really try pie with hendersons relish from Sheffield, it's like Worcester sauce but better Gareth I was brought up on it mate
Buy yourself a pie maker. You can get one for about £15. You can then make your own pies and use your own ingredients. Check out videos on TH-cam reviewing pie makers. They are quick and simple to use. I wouldn’t eat those pies you show on this video. Also I have read that habitually eating microwaved food can lead to stomach cancer. Thanks for your videos.
I bought an air fryer & sent it back. The oven does the same thing & you can get more in it for family meals. Air fryers are like vaps in the sense that they don’t know if they cause harm to the human body. It’s the prices of energy that made me want to switch, but I just ended up with another piece of kit to clutter my kitchen. Thanks for your input ❤
I find microwaved food goes colder quicker. I reheated a xmas lunch i did not finish. The sprouts done in a micro had me in pain, on my hands and knees. No more micro for us. Air fryers every time, a lot quicker.
Cracking video again. One day I don't mind pie the next day I can't stand it, oh the joys of post chemo crap 😂 just wondered if you have tried the fray bentos meat pudding, £1.89 at b+m 3 mins microwave,Ray loved it, did look and smell really nice, keep doing what you do enjoy watching, ATB to the wife from Newark 🖖🌹
Finally got some of those Asda plates Gareth. Funny thing, on the Asda website someone has put a comment saying they got those plates because of you. Hope your on commission.

Nothing stops you microwaving then finishing the pastry in your air fryer. Happy Days.

Hi Gaz if I do a pie or sauage roll in the air fryer
I always turn them over half way through cooking,,
Works a treat, happy Monday, x
Thank you, yes will try turning them over next time. Happy Mondays. Good group they were lol x

always have a selection of Hollands pies and puddings in my freezer love them
yes me too mate got meat and potato pack also
Pooles pie of Wigan were the best till they went bust during lockdown they were the best I ever found
thats a shame pal
I have no oven at the moment so i am having to microwave my pies then crisp up the pastry under the grill.
Try the pukka microwave pies they are amazing Claire 😋😋👍👍
Can't beat a good pie.

Holland do a peppered steak pie, we bought some from Farmfoods a few weeks ago.

Eh up Gazza hows tha doin. I've now got to the point where I watch your videos and salivate. I think your trying to persuade me to come back to blighty. Amazing video. In fact it was spot on. If I was your lecky meter I'd be dizzy. Cooking in t'oven n microwave and air fryer. Thank you for all the content you bring. Thas a gudd un mate.
haha stay where its warm lol
Love soggy pastry…
Just hate gravy and wished they were in Vindaloo sauce instead👍😋
Put it in the air fryer then turn over half way through crispy on both sides 😀
yummy thanks 😊
Brown sauce not bad but you should really try pie with hendersons relish from Sheffield, it's like Worcester sauce but better Gareth I was brought up on it mate
yes ive got some in the fridge was gifted to me. cheers.
Get that air fryer on e-bay ASAP .
I bought a pack of the Hollands Snake and Pigmy puddings from Tesco, and thought them quite good and tasty.
tasty arnt they David.
They looked decent pies, just a matter of cooking them in the best way. 8 from me.
Buy yourself a pie maker. You can get one for about £15. You can then make your own pies and use your own ingredients. Check out videos on TH-cam reviewing pie makers. They are quick and simple to use. I wouldn’t eat those pies you show on this video. Also I have read that habitually eating microwaved food can lead to stomach cancer. Thanks for your videos.
you need a pie maker, then you know whats in the pie. pie maker was our best buy after the air fryer of course
Spot on Wayne.
I bought an air fryer & sent it back. The oven does the same thing & you can get more in it for family meals. Air fryers are like vaps in the sense that they don’t know if they cause harm to the human body. It’s the prices of energy that made me want to switch, but I just ended up with another piece of kit to clutter my kitchen. Thanks for your input ❤
Cheers Lee last you give it a try 👍👍
I like mulligatawny soup on my pies, adds a bit of spice, but oxtail is also nice with the steak n kidney
Thank s so much i dont have a oven i have a air fryer so ty
You’re welcome 😊
I find microwaved food goes colder quicker. I reheated a xmas lunch i did not finish. The sprouts done in a micro had me in pain, on my hands and knees. No more micro for us. Air fryers every time, a lot quicker.
cheers Colin, yes soon cools down.
I live near the Holland's factory!! Kx
Brilliant 👌👌
The Christian’s! Ideal world 👍🏻😂😂
Cracking video again. One day I don't mind pie the next day I can't stand it, oh the joys of post chemo crap 😂 just wondered if you have tried the fray bentos meat pudding, £1.89 at b+m 3 mins microwave,Ray loved it, did look and smell really nice, keep doing what you do enjoy watching, ATB to the wife from Newark 🖖🌹
Cheers Shell, I've got one in my cupboard had it ages. Hope your well. I used to live in Balderton Newark 👌👌

As long as it states “sustainably sourced palm oil” that’s ok.
