  This was perfectly fine, but a little bit plain for me. I think it tasted a little one note and needed something else in the ingredients to really pick it up.

  This is not "easy" (unless you are a pretty good pastry chef), its far too fiddly. I agree with Mattmes, the filling is bland, the honey and raisins make it too sweet, and combined with the orange juice in the pastry you can't taste the pork at all. I would suggest reduce the honey by 50%, add a chilli, some basil, and some garlic to give it some kick. As it was, my kids thought it was an experimental mince pie, and should be served as a dessert with cream on it. Sorry, but it was given a big thumbs down in my house.
