Step 1

Sieve flour into large bowl, rub in butter/lard until breadcrumby. Mix onion and sage in, add enough water to form a dough . Put in a plastic bag or cover with clingfilm and rest in the fridge for 30 mins or so.

Step 2

Put the pork and onion in a large frying pan and cook on a medium heat until the meat changes colour and starts to release juices (you don’t need any oil).

Step 3

Add the sage and season, then add the stock and cook for approx 40 mins until the meat is cooked.

Step 4

Mix cornflour with some water and add to the meat mixture to thicken. Leave to cool.

Step 5

Divide pastry into two and roll out one half to line a pie dish (I used a deep 9” pie dish). Add the cooled meat to the dish (use a slotted spoon as there may be too much sauce which will make the pastry soggy) and then roll out the other piece of pastry and cover.

Step 6

Cook in a moderate oven 300°C, Gas 4 or 150°F for about 40 minutes.

Step 7

Reheat the sauce left over and use as gravy
