- Preheat the oven on the lowest setting around gas mark 1/4 / 120C / 225°F
- Put the mincemeat mixture into a large ovenproof dish, cover with foil and bake for 3 hours
- When you take it out it will look like it's swimming in grease, it's meant to so don't panic!
- Let it cool stirring when you feel like it. Stir in the brandy when it's completely cooled
- This is enough to fill 3 x 450g sterilized jars. Fill the jars to the top and place a waxed disc on top before putting the lids on. Will keep for a year in a cupboard. Makes a nice Christmas gift if you tie a gift tag around the neck with pretty ribbon and the pie recipe below written on…

- Put 12 pastry discs onto a lightly greased baking sheet. Spoon some mincemeat onto the middle, don't go overboard as the suet will bubble out and burst your pies, leave room around the edge
- Brush some milk of choice around the edge and put the remaining 12 discs on top, pinching the sides together upwards to create a shell and lid and prick the tops with a knife
- Brush the tops with some more milk, sprinkle with caster sugar and bake for 15-20 minutes or until risen and golden
- Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving gently to a wire rack to cool completely
