I'll admit I relied on Wikipedia for this since I don't posses the necessary mustache to ever pronounce your beautiful language correctly, but Wiki does indeed also call it a gráfico de pizza.

Fish pie is a bit woke. Give me steak pie with mash, gravy and a few peas for health
26
u/Chimpville Barry, 63 1d ago
Woke? Let me tell you something about that.
When I've smashed that pie solo, cos I'm gonna, I'm going to have consumed at least six living things.
Meanwhile you are sharing one(!!) over many pies.
You're cropping some fraction of a cow from some managed countryside and stopping it farting any more, which is only going to keep the dutch happy.
I'm taking free creatures from their contributory role in their ecosystem, helping to further denude the oceans of their biodiversity and contribute to ocean degredation, which impacts literally billions of foriners.
..and I don't even like fish. I do it purely for spite.
Don't talk to me about woke.

u/generalscruff Barry, 63 1d ago
Ok that's based, what sort of gravy would you put on it?

u/Chimpville Barry, 63 1d ago
Pureed orangutan. It tastes terrible but the wokies outrage is the flavour I'm after.

Stargazy pie, the most grotesque of pies. Excel can’t handle a proper English pie (nor can English people, I’d yack if someone served me this)

u/Chimpville Barry, 63 1d ago edited 1d ago
In all seriousness... I bet it's delicious. People are just squeamish about fish heads when you don't even eat them, any more than you don't eat prawn heads. They're just there for tradition and to prove it's fresh and unprocessed fish.
Look at the recipe for it - https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/stargazey_pie_95306
I struggle to see how this wouldn't taste fantastic. I really should jsut give it a go:
30g/1oz butter
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 leek, finely chopped
- 3 rashers (smoked or unsmoked) streaky bacon, finely chopped
- 20g/¾oz plain flour
- 3 tbsp dry white wine
- 250ml/9fl oz fish stock
- 300ml/10fl oz double cream
- pinch saffron strands
- 1 tsp salt
- small bunch fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 free-range eggs, 2 hard-boiled and chopped, 1 beaten to glaze
- 200g/7oz puff pastry
- 6 small mackerel, butterflied with the heads on (backbone and tail removed)
- freshly ground black pepper
- boiled new potatoes and green vegetables, to serve

u/generalscruff Barry, 63 1d ago
I actually tried making it once, it's ok but I prefer the more conventional fish pie. I think mackerel is far better grilled or fried than baked in a pie. A traditional preparation would be to fry with bacon and oatmeal, that's quite nice

Sorry since when was a pie sweet?
I get that apple pies exist but 'pie' without further qualification means meat, gravy and pastry, three of the main Barry food groups

Genuine question, why are shepherd and cottage pies called pies? It’s basically meat filling topped with mashed potatoes, I don’t really get where pie fits in there.
9
u/generalscruff Barry, 63 1d ago edited 1d ago
I guess it's because of the potato topping covering the filling

u/GunnerySgtBuck Brexiteer 1d ago
While I agree I have to say that apple pie is top tier and supposedly english so I'll allow it.

Hans, do you think that pie is the same thing as a cake?
(It's Koláčový diagram (Pie chart) in czech, I know no one asked about us, I inform you anyway like a true czech would)

u/0swolf StaSi Informant 1d ago
Isn't a cake just a more elaborate pie?

u/Dr-Batista Western Balkan 1d ago
Based. Here in portugal we also call any kind of baked good "bolo" (cake). Pie is cake, pastel is cake, a donut is a cake as well, etc.

In Spain it's diagrama de quesitos, literally little cheeses but it refers to La vache qui rit style cheese triangles

I found lagkagediagram in Danish language on the French Wikipedia which is translated to birthday cake chart.
I don't speak Danish but I find it very cute.

To be honest I only really know it as „Kreisdiagramm“ (circle chart)
I’ve never heard Tortendiagramm before.

About cheese ? It's a rhetorical question, Luigi.
but TIL that my cousin Pierre from Canada calls it 'diagramme en pointe de tarte' with his usual habit of litteral translation from savage gibberish to noble language.
