Ian, right here on Blackmore Farm, while Ann\u2019s family farmed on the Duchy of Cornwall estate, then owned by King Charles, near Bath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The husband-and-wife duo first met through the Young Farmers Clubs in their 20s. Fast forward a few decades, the two have three adult children and have lovingly restored more and more of the old estate known as Blackmore Farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ian loves to take Trafalgar guests out into the paddock to kick up dirt and meet the dairy herd and other livestock. Join him on a farm tour to see the day-to-day work that goes into keeping things running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ann is a keen cook and usually prepares some classic family favourites for our Be My Guest lunch, including her British chicken, ham and leek pie. Lucky for us she\u2019s been kind enough to share the pie recipe with us below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CWvrOgcMdSY\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>RELATED BLOG: <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/weirdest-foods\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em><strong>We quizzed our Travel Directors on the weirdest foods they\u2019ve braved on their travels<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mrs-dyer-s-chicken-ham-and-leek-pie-recipe\">Mrs Dyer\u2019s Chicken, Ham and Leek Pie Recipe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredients\">Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>1 large chicken or 4 chicken breasts, cooked<br>2 thick slices of ham<br>2 large leeks<br>50g butter<br>25g flour<br>250ml chicken stock<br>250ml milk<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Pastry<\/em><br>200g self-raising flour<br>100g shredded suet<br>Salt<br>Cold water to mix<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/10\/pastry-for-pie-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-871198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/pastry-for-pie-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/pastry-for-pie-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/pastry-for-pie.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method\">Method<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Wash and slice the leeks and place in a large saucepan with the butter.
