We have a Sea Pie in our family too. It is not one of the fancy ones with six layers of different meats, but a slow-cooked dish appropriate for a family where everyone worked.

The main ingredients are dried peas (soaked) and minced beef, with a suet crust.

I've written the recipe down, and you can see it at:

Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.
