Make up some glaze : 1/4 pint of boiling water to 1 tablespoon of glaze mix (we send this with the pies). You’ll get two bags of mix - the yellower one is the glaze, the other jelly. They will each have a label in the bag, but sometimes it gets a bit buried.
Brush the frozen pies with the glaze, and put them on a baking tray (still in the foil cases) - We recommend you put some greaseproof paper or tin foil under them to make the washing up process easier
Put them in the oven for 10 minutes
Remove from oven and give them another brush of glaze
Put them in the oven for another 10 minutes
Remove again and give a final third brush of glaze
Turn the oven down to 200 degrees (Gas Mark 6 or 400 degrees F) and cook for about another 30 - 40 minutes
They are done when they are a lovely dark golden brown, and there is some black goo oozing out of the holes - this is the onion marmalade. By this stage the kitchen will smell just divine.
Leave them to stand for 10 minutes, meanwhile make up the jelly : 1/4 pint of boiling water to 1 tablespoon of gelatine (again, we send this with the pies)
Inject into the holes about 5 - 10 ml of jelly using the syringe we send out. Cooking with gadgets - excellent fun!
Remove from foil (this is easiest when cool if you can wait). It helps to give the rim a snip with scissors.
Eat them hot or cold
Kept in the fridge the cooked pies are fine for up to 7 days
