Serves: 4-6
Prep time: 15 mins, 15 mins pastry chill time
Cooking time: 50 mins
Total time: 1 hr 30 mins
Skill level: Bit of effort
Costs: Mid-price 

Ingredients:

For the pastry

– 175g (6oz) plain flour
pinch of salt
– 30g (1oz) vegetable fat or lard
– 60g (2oz) butter 

For the filling

– 500g (1lb) fresh raspberries
– 250g (8oz) fresh redcurrants, stripped from stalks
– about 175g (6oz) caster sugar
– 2 tbsp corn flour
– 900ml (1½ pint) pie dish; cut a template of the dish top from paper 

Method:

1. To make the pastry: Sift flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Cut fats into small pieces, add to the flour and rub them in until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs. Stir in enough water (about 3 tbsp) to make a fairly stiff pastry dough. Knead lightly, wrap in cling film and chill for 15 mins.

2. Quickly rinse then dry the fruit on kitchen paper. Put it into the pie dish, sprinkle with sugar and corn flour and stir in carefully.

3. Set oven to 190°C/Gas Mark 5.

4. Roll out pastry on a lightly floured work surface to 5cm (2in) larger than pie dish.

5. Moisten dish edge with water, cut a strip of pastry all round edge of pastry shape to fit round edge of pie dish. Press it down well. Moisten this strip, then put pastry lid on and press edges together well. Trim off excess pastry and “knock up” the edges. Mark with your thumb (scallop edges).

6. Brush the top with water and sprinkle with caster sugar.

7. Bake pie, on a baking sheet, in middle of oven for 45-50 mins or until pastry is browned and crisp. Serve pie warm or cold.
