Ex pats!

Hypothetical question – if you lived on the Costa del Sol would you have a Melton Mowbray pork flown in from the UK? Well, would you?

    I wouldn’t. But then I don’t know what that is….

    A pork pie is a traditional British food consisting of chopped pork and pork jelly in a hot water crust pastry – where I lived in the UK, it was normally eaten cold with piccalilli or other pickles or a spicy brown sauce.

    Melton Mowbray Pork Pies are made using uncured meat and have crusts that are irregular in shape and hand made (ie its the Ferrari of pork pies), whilst commercially produced pies use cured pork with a more uniform shape as their makers use moulds.

    You can’t beat a nice bit of Melton with marmite smothered on it… hehe.

    YEs, I would have some flown in if I were you… marmite optional ;)
