Forfar Bridies (Irish)

A decent effort, but marred by a couple of important errors: 1st, The recipe originates from the old county of Angus in North-East Scotland, not in Ireland. (Lookup Forfar) 2nd, One of the main ingredients of Forfar Bridies is missing: Beef Suet: maybe not to everyones taste , but essential for the original & wonderful Forfar Bridie!
