Calling Cornish ex pats living in se london

[fuzzyboots]

I just wanted to wish all my fellow Cornish ex-pays a Happy St Piran's day today.

Pasties for dinner tonight :)

All for one and one for all, my luvvers!

[womanofdulwich]

mm make your own??

whats for pud?

Saffron bread?

[fuzzyboots]

Will be making my own Pasties. Saffron bread would be a step beyond my culinary capabilities I'm afraid! for me. Today at least!

[womanofdulwich]

They used to sell Saffron bread in the somerfield on Lordship Lane which is now a co-op but I dont they do anymore :(

[fuzzyboots]

:( indeed. It is delicious. I shan't even be making scones for a cream tea for pudding, because I would have to eat up all the clotted cream that was left over and that would be another step too far ;)

So I'm not in the slightest Cornish, but did try making my own pasties a couple of weeks ago. I'm a relatively competent cook/baker, but these were a total and unmitigated disaster. Do you have a good recipe?

And thank you for contributing to my general education - I've just had to look up St Piran...

[GLJ]

Happy St Pirans day to you too, from a fellow cornishman (well woman) : )

[DiscoDex]

They get everywhere...

 

[ibilly99]

fuzzyboots I am greeting you in Cornish - as a grockle I used to regularly holiday with friends in Cambourne and after a few pints of excellent cornish ale would indulge in banter with the locals and would raise our glasses to the Cornish Nationalists with the cry of Anghof - whatever that means.
