“My Nanna used to make this for me when I visited her when I was at uni. She’d always wrap some up to send home with me and it got me through a lot of very skint weeks when I was at university.” 

My guest, Scott Johnson, shares Nanna Frances’ recipe for Corned Beef & Potato pie with me on a very hot Good Friday spent in lockdown 2020. The ingredients had a slight “war time” feel to them (corned beef, flour, butter, tomato ketchup, onion and potato) and the irony of having to queue up to buy these items wasn’t lost on me. Although instead of butter being scarce it was definitely the flour which was impossible to track down!
