My mum used to make a wonderful dish she called Potato Lemon cheesecake....it consisted of a layer of shortcrust pastry in a flan tin, spread with jam then a mixture of mashed potatoes, sugar , eggs and lemon zest and juice was spread on top before baking...and then chilled overnight in the fridge.....it was very special .I have never come across anyone else who knew this recipe....I recommend it highly.
My son is adding you to his viewing list I've been telling him how laid back you are and what wonderful British recipes you show. He lives in the Netherlands. 😊
Cheers, Dan. Amazing pastry this. Can be used and adapted for savoury fillings. Meat and potato pie would be a cracker. I don't think many are cooking the way I am. Thank you. Best, Rik
I bought a Kenwood chef 40yrs ago and the recipe book as potato pastry in it.I have always used it for cheese flans and its great. Without more ado the mash has no milk or butter in it and the creamed mash which you can cream in a machine or hand has to be cold before mixing into a dough.Great show mate
Looks superb Rik, breathing suppressed, followed by a big round of applause 👏👏👏 went when you released the spring of the cake tin!🎉🥧😆 Much as I’d like to try making this, think my ham-fisted arthritic hands would make a complete dogs dinner out of this one.🫣😂😂 As always - thanks for sharing 🙏 & have a lovely weekend!👨🍳🥧👌😋
I loved this recipe! I would have never imagined using potatoes this way, it looks amazing. Two of my favorite ingredients together, what could be better... Thanks! Cristina
Great channel Rick...always look forward to seeing what you have made each day. Have you ever made a Scottish dish called Stovies? Keep up the good work.👍
This recipe was brought to you in partnership with the UK Mashed Potato Board. With the number of times Rik mentioned mashed potato I reckon he was rewarded with a container of Smash for every time he said mashed potato ... lol This certainly was a different way of making pastry, something I had never heard of. I do like a good apple pie and this deep pie looked great
@@BackyardChef Rik, a question about the lemon Drizzle cake you made a few videos back. I want to try this but don;t have a loaf tin, can I use the same tin you used in this apple pie video? If I can then what will be the cooking time
I just love the fact that you never panic and are not afraid to show that you are not always sure how things are going to turn out. Either you just wing it or just use a little bit of drama ? X this is not meant to be a criticism Rik, so dont be offended by my comment.
Ye of little faith. Who needs the likes of Paul Hollywood, when we've got you? Your pastries are out of this world, as I've tried them. Sunday is Mother's Day. If I were given a slice of this pie, I'd be over the moon.
This looks interesting Rik. I like how you launch a new recipe straight onto TH-cam not really knowing how it will turn out. Not many chefs on here would do that!
This is the one I’ve been waiting excitedly for and it did not disappoint , yes yes yes it looks amazing like a cross between a pie and a steamed pudding can’t wait to try one and of cause have some cheese with mine , thank you Rik you smashed it and I laughed when you said delicately chuck it in 😂👌Amanda xx
Hi Rik. My granmother used to do potato pastry. Traditional czech cuisine. I love it. The think is you must work very quickly. Quick excercises with your fingers. Pastry don't need much cuddles and rests. Otherwise it weeps and you need to add some flower. Filling must be prepared first and 😊 when cake is done - it goes to owen imidiately. ❤ from Czech Republik. We use to do potato pastry with poppy or with povidla - it is plum jam with no sugar. Apple filling is not so common. Thank you for your recipe.
When you cut the first slice and carefully went down the side without crumbling the potato pastry, I heard my grandmother say, "Oh ah, they don't let 'em on till they've reared 'em." You really should have a pie shop. I reckon you'd sell out.
I eat potatoes nearly every day. I've seen all sorts of recipes that uses potatoes eg bread & flatbreads (awa as a base for fillings to go inside) & mash potato is a great was to thicken sauces, stews, curries & soups instead of using flour. Now I can put potato in pastry too - excellent. Thank you for a very unusual take on a classic recipe. And thank you South America for the gift of the potato.
My understanding is that this is specific to Co. Armagh (the Orchard County). I remember having this at home sixty odd years ago. Never thought I’d see a video on it, thanks for that.
We don't cook with potatoe pastry enough in the uk, we should as it nutritionally contributes to one of the five main nutrients.... carbohydrate, essential for energy!
So happy to find this channel! It's giving me lots of ideas for my weekly veg box - I love eating seasonally and locally but it can be a challenge sometimes. Traditional recipes with potatoes, cabbage, turnip, beetroot, leeks etc are a big help
New subscriber here. Love your channel. I am drooling with every recipe (been catching up watching all your older episodes - YUM, YUM!!) Also, my gran was from Dundalk and she would recognize this particular recipe!
How do you make the lovely curry sauce (not curry paste) that you buy with your chips at the local take-away? I asked how it was made and was told they use about half a dozen spicy ingredients, but also including butter. Chips just aren’t the same without curry sauce!
I wonder if this was a way of using up left over mashed potato, or because they grew mostly potatoes in Ireland… I have never made this type of pastry and it seems a bit weird to have it with a sweet filling. Great way to do the apples as well giving some solid apple texture. Very interesting all round Rik! 😊
I'm definitely going to be searching for some decent potatoes to try this! The town I live in, in Costa Rica has old produce, especially the potatoes and onions (and they still get away with charging 13% tax on it all). Love your recipes!!
The potato shell held perfectly, nice and stiff, but the apples fell out, so gotta figure what is it that keeps a regular pie from falling out like that. Maybe you should have let it sit and cool longer ?? Or is there an ingredient that should go into the apples to make them hold together ?? But no matter if they slide out, the pie seems delicious. I have no complaints .
Rik. when I make a german potato bread if the spuds are too wet I chuck in some instant mash to soak up the excess. Always have some in the cupboard for thickening soups and sauces. Got a bit more substance than cornflour.
@BackyardChef welcome. You gave me a lack of soggy bottom in my pies. Happy to share a little tip I picked up 25 years ago with you and your subscribers
I know I'm very late on this so don't know if you will see it. Potato Pastry was also a big war time recipe here in the states, along with Potato Bread and Potato Candy. I've seen it used to make Pasties (hand pies here), sweet or savory, but was also wondering if it is ever used to make a Galette, sweet or savory? Or is it too soft? Shirley in NH
A triumph! Potato pastry isn’t something I’ve run across before. Do you know whether the potato was used by preference, or to conserve wheat flour, or to use leftover potatoes, or something else?

Interesting! Thank you. Best, Rik
I like the sound of that 😋
So different from any I've ever heard of. Thank you for sharing your memories ❤️
I would like to express appreciation for your Mum and yourself
Does indeed sound delicious
That sounds so good!!
This pastry would be delicious with a savory filling too!
Oh yeah!
Yes indeed! Meat and potato amazing! Thank you. Best, Rik
Would be delicious chicken pie with stuffing on it just before the top pastry layer. Yummy 🤤

Hard to watch without getting hungry. Beautiful results sir.
Thank you. Best, Rik
So, for me now, I’m out tomorrow, to buy a spring form pie tin. So exited, and can’t wait to experiment.
Ric this pastry would be excellent over a dish or meat and potatoes. Thank you. Best, Rik
Just ordered one from Amazon 😂

I wait in anticipation.
This looks interesting Rik. I like how you launch a new recipe straight onto TH-cam not really knowing how it will turn out. Not many chefs on here would do that!
Yeah Ive cooked for a bit, Id rather just make it and we can all see it can be done or it can't no practice runs here! Thank you. Best, Rik
Thank God it worked, looks lovely but I'm not sure I could get past the potato cake in my head, thank you for a previously unknown from IRL.

Sounds great! Thank you. Best, Rik
Omg Rik that’s incredible! My mouth is watering 😊❤
