; little milk
2 Whole parboiled potatoes
100 g Flour
2 tablespoon Cajun spice
1 small Bunc curly parsley

Preheat oven to 200c.

1 Use one sheet of pastry and roll out onto your chopping board. Use a
saucer to cut around to produce two pieces of pastry.

2 Use a small knife to light crisscross the pastry without making the
indentations too deep.

3 Place the pieces of pastry on a lightly greased baking tray and place in
the oven for 10 minutes.

4 Prepare the kidney with a pair of scissors by cutting in half and
removing the sinew. Then cut into dice. Heat a large frying pan and add a
drizzle of olive oil.

5 Add the red onion, crush in the garlic and add the mixed herbs. Cook for
30 seconds. Add the minced kidneys to the pan and and allow to seal for a
further minute, stirring occasionally.

6 Add the red wine and reduce over a fairly rapid heat. Add 2 tbsp tomato
puree to the large frying pan and stir in thoroughly.

7 Add the beef stock a bit at a time, stirring well after each addition.
Simmer, turning the heat down to low.

8 Dice the fillet steak into 1" cubes. Heat a medium pan and drizzle with
olive oil. Add the steak to the pan, seal and brown well.

9 Transfer the steak to the large pan with the kidney mixture and pour in
any additional liquor.

10 Remove the pastry from the oven and leave to one side. Make up the
seasoned flour by adding the cajun spice and mixing well.

11 Cut the parboiled potatoes into wedges. Place the wedges into the
seasoned flour and transfer them to the eggwash. Finally transfer the
wedges back to the seasoned flour and coat well.

12 Place the cabbage leaves into a pan of boiling water and leave for a
minute. Shake off any excess flour and place the wedges into the frying
basket. Deep fry until golden brown.

Deepfry the wedges until golden brown and remove from the oil. Place on a
plate covered with kitchen towel.

14 To serve: Arrange the cabbage leaves on a serving plate and spoon on a
portion of the steak and kidney mixture. Cover with the pastry lid.

15 Carefully arrange the spicy wedges around the pie and garnish with a
sprig of curly parsley.
