The pies have it

Brakes has launched two contemporary-style fully-baked square pies, made with a luxurious, butter-enriched pastry.

Brakes square pies are filled with beef

steak, onion and rich gravy or chicken, leek

and ham.

The pies are ready to serve in six minutes from the freezer - they take four minutes in

the microwave and two minutes to finish in

the oven.

Brakes says the pastry remains crisp as if baked in an oven for 30 minutes. Brakes chicken, leek & ham square pie is prepared with roast chicken and a creamy white sauce made with full fat soft cheese.

Both pies come in 300g sizes, 12 to a pack with a list price of £29.95 per pack (£2.50

per pie).

Turn a Quorner

The dippers are coated in a light tempura

batter and can be baked in the oven from

frozen in 15 minutes.

Quorn says: "The familiar product will appeal to kids as they will have undoubtedly seen or tried the chicken version. Parents can encourage children try this healthier alternative and know that it meets nutritional requirements."

Quorn also suggests serving the dippers as a sharing plate with dips or with a tomato salsa for a light bite.
