Description
Traditionally, cooking apples are used here, but sweet Granny Smiths give a good flavour to this pie.
Method
Step 1 of 4
Sift the flour, sugar, and salt into a bowl. Add the lard and butter, and rub together until crumbs form. Sprinkle water over, 1 tbs at a time, stopping as soon as clumps form. Press lightly into a ball, wrap in cling film, and chill for 30 minutes.
Step 2 of 4
Put the apples in a bowl, add the lemon juice and all but 2 tbs of the sugar, and toss. Add the blackberries and toss again.
Step 3 of 4
Roll out the dough on a floured surface. Cut off a 2cm strip that will reach around the rim of a 1 litre pie dish. Roll the rest out to 7.5cm larger in diameter than the dish. Place a pie funnel or upturned ovenproof cup in the dish. Spoon the fruit around.
Step 4 of 4
Moisten the rim of the dish with water and press on the strip of pastry. Brush it with water and press on the pastry top. Cut a hole over the funnel and trim the edges. Chill for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 190°C (Gas 5). Bake for 50-60 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining sugar to serve.
