So, saw my old mum today and she had a million apples from her tree. So I thought I'd try making apple pie.
Not being any sort of cook, I picked a recipe. It was a Delia one.
The end result is cooking, but I followed the recipe exactly. The first problem was that there were WAY too many apples to fit the tin. Just way off. Now have to throw away stacks. And more importantly, there was nothing LIKE enough pastry, even when rolled so thin it was virtually see through, to cover the base and top.
So, foodies, tell me is this recipe bonkers and has misprints, or I didn't do something obvious, to make it all fit, or what?
Yes the tin was the size specified.
