Mary Berry is usually on the ball but she’s annoyed people with this one.
She’s currently on TV with her new BBC2 series Mary Berry Everyday, and this time around she made a potato, cheese and leek pie.
For the pie she put all the cooked ingredients into a casserole dish and covered it with puff pastry before putting it in the oven.
The fact that she didn’t put pastry on the bottom of the dish is causing outrage online.
People were complaining that it was just a casserole with a lid and not a pie. Yes, they clearly had a lot of time on their hands.
Here’s what they had to say:
No wonder Bake Off had to fire her, if that’s what she think passes for a pie! #pah #piegate #lidtastic #maryberryeveryday

That’s not a fucking pie, Mary! It’s a casserole with a pastry top! #maryberryeveryday

Sorry Mary, but it’s not really a pie if there’s no pastry base #maryberryeveryday

That’s a pastry lid – not a pie. You’re going to give Twitter a meltdown. Disgraceful. #maryberryeveryday

That isn’t a pie. It has no base. That’s just a lid. Disapointed. Would still eat it though.#maryberryeveryday
