  These are lovely :) I omitted the bacon and spring onions, but they still had lots of flavour thanks to the chillis.

  These are fantastic! I also added some peppers and mushrooms to the potato mix and they were so full of flavour! I've never made pie before and can say they looked bought from a fancy deli, so definitely foolproof. Slightly time consuming and would also recommend a little gravy on the side. DELICIOUS!!

  I really enjoyed these and would definitely make them again but next time i will leave the potatoes in the pan a little longer just to make sure they are softened enough.

  I took the advice of Marlene and cooked the potatoes a little longer and they came out great. I do agree with Chefmegan, they are a little dry but not sure how to improve that? any ideas? It wouldnt put me off making them again though the flavours are great! I have to say, and i think this must be my own creative talents at fault but they didnt look all that pretty!

  a spoonful of cream of chicken or mushroom soup helps keep them moist.

  Because of the comments about them being dry I put some tomato chutney into the mixture. I used back bacon instead of streaky so had to use some oil to cook the potatoes. Had to cook the pasties for longer than it said but think that was because I crammed five into a roasting tin and used the convection on a microwave. If I make them again shall use normal oven and a pizza tray with holes in as the bottom pastry was soggy. Only just started this cooking lark.

  I also had read the comments about them being a little dry so I added half a small tub of philladelphia cream cheese. The only criticism I got was why hadn't i made more!!!! Lovely and moist and the chilli gives a nice kick!

  I really liked these. I added chorizo, partly cos I had some left over and partly because of the comments about the mixture being dry and I thought the extra fat would help. They were lovely - and moist.

  These were so easy to make, and tasty. I didn't find mine too dry at all, but perhaps that comes down to personal preference...? They cooked perfectly in 15 minutes on fan bake. Not too spicy, maybe next time would add an extra chilli. A nice mango chutney on the side would be a tasty addition.
