⏱ Time
1-1/2 hour to stew the giblets, about 1 hour to bake the pie

🥘 Ingredients

A set of duck or goose giblets, 1 lb. of rump-steak, 1 onion, 1/2 teaspoonful of whole black pepper, a bunch of savoury herbs, plain crust.

👨‍🍳 Method

Clean, and put the giblets into a stewpan with an onion, whole pepper, and a bunch of savoury herbs; add rather more than a pint of water, and simmer gently for about 1-1/2 hour. Take them out, let them cool, and cut them into pieces; line the bottom of a pie-dish with a few pieces of rump-steak; add a layer of giblets and a few more pieces of steak; season with pepper and salt, and pour in the gravy (which should be strained), that the giblets were stewed in; cover with a plain crust, and bake for rather more than 1-1/2 hour in a brisk oven. Cover a piece of paper over the pie, to prevent the crust taking too much colour.

Quiet elegance from another century

I tried my hand at Giblet Pie this week, and I must say, it's a clever way to turn often-overlooked parts into a hearty meal. I found the process of stewing the giblets with herbs and onions filled my kitchen with a comforting aroma that reminded me of slow Sundays. The biggest surprise was how tender the rump-steak became, melding beautifully with the giblets and creating a rich, savoury filling. I used a goose, and the liver in particular added a depth of flavour that I wasn't expecting. This pie is perfect for the modern weeknight cook looking to make the most of their ingredients. The process is straightforward, and the baking time allows for multitasking. I served it with some simple mashed potatoes to soak up the gravy, and it was a satisfying end to a busy day. The key is to take your time with the stewing process; it's worth the wait. Don't skip the paper covering the crust — it ensures a golden, not burnt, top.
