Has anyone found a way to make the bfree wraps stick down?
I’m a coeliac so can’t use the WW wraps and would so love to give this receive a go????
MarnieMonday 27th August 2018
Hi, would this work with the Lo-Dough?
LynnFriday 27th July 2018
Hi I’ve just made these and they were a huge hit with all the family. I just found the “crust” a little bit tough and wondered if I could do something to prevent it next time. I egg washed the wrap and cooked them for 10 mins one side and 13 mins other side fan oven 175 degrees?
RiaTuesday 13th February 2018
Hi, is it possible make this without the mustard powder (would it taste ok)? I have Dijon mustard if that would work? Thanks, Ria
ChrisTuesday 30th January 2018
After defrosting the corned beef pasties do you re-heat them in the oven or the microwave? Thanks in advance
Julie holmesThursday 18th January 2018
Using the gluten free ,maybe you could stand them up and sort of twist the top to keep the filling in, instead of making them flat , be more like a parcel
Steve BeckleyMonday 15th January 2018
Made the GF version today I used a paste of 1tbls GF bread flour and water to seal the pasties, brushed it all round the edges of BFREE Wraps and they have sealed without crimping them
DebSaturday 13th January 2018
I used leftover SW Korma in them! Delicious!
Sheila WearingSunday 12th November 2017
Made these recently, and added some Swede too. They turned out perfectly, and were extremely filling.
A definite hit in our house!
Ruth MuzeenSunday 22nd October 2017
These are amazing, thanks so much for this fab recipe! Made for the second time today and even hubby enjoyed one for lunch! This time I added 1 tsp medium curry powder to the filling mixture which was tasty but not really spicy so might up it next time.
MariateresaTuesday 26th September 2017

Caroline OfficerMonday 11th September 2017
Would these work without egg wash as I’m allergic to eggs but really want to try these is there anything else I can use please??
IrishFriday 8th September 2017
Made these with Turkey mince, omg they are lush ????????
Emma TSunday 10th September 2017
Hi Irish,
So glad you enjoyed them!
CatThursday 7th September 2017
Hiya stupid question but do you mash the potato in with the cornbeef? Making these tonight.
Thanks
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Cat,
Just mix it all together ????
Marie MorganSaturday 2nd September 2017
Hi Veronica – How did you get these to stick together? Was really looking forward to using these instead of the WW ones when I went to Ireland so I stocked up. No way did these stick together, even using cocktail sticks it was disastrous…..TIA if you can help Marie x
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Marie,
Only the WW wraps will stick together properly – use plenty of egg to wash over and then squeeze the edges ????
AliceTuesday 29th August 2017
Hi, these look fab, how do you think they’d work reheating them? Just thinking if I cook them and then take them to work will they reheat in the microwave? Thanks x
Hannah PerryThursday 24th August 2017
I notice a lot of comments about the pasties not sticking together using the egg wash. I think the problem could be solved by using cocktail sticks to seal the ends for cooking and then they can easily be removed. Just a thought as the sticks would keep them together so it would mean you could use any make for the shell.
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Hannah,
This is a good idea!
Jo JonesWednesday 23rd August 2017
Hi I can only get Tesco mini wraps…any idea how many suns?
Thanks Jo.
JeanetteMonday 21st August 2017
Cannot seem to find the weight watchers wraps not in my local Tesco store. Where is the best place to get them.
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Jeanette,
Several of the supermarkets stock them, but it varies between local stores as to whether they stock them or not. It would be best to contact them directly ????
ToniSaturday 19th August 2017
These were just fantastic, myself and hubby had one for tea and I will keep the other one for lunch tomo possibly!
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Toni,
So glad you enjoyed them!
ChristineFriday 18th August 2017
Mine always burst open.
I used the eye wash and a fork to crimp the w watcher wraps.
They tasted great but I need to find a way to keep them sealed.
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Christine,
You do need to squeeze them together very firmly – hope you get them to stick!
HelenTuesday 15th August 2017
Hiya, Do you just chop the cooked potatoes or mash it?
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Helen,
Just chop them ????
Rhoda willisMonday 14th August 2017

Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Rhoda,

StacieFriday 11th August 2017

Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Stacie,
Thanks for getting in touch! ????
SallyThursday 3rd August 2017
If u freeze these do u reheat from defrosted or frozen please ????
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Sally,
You could reheat them from frozen – would take around 45 minutes in a moderate oven. Careful not to burn them!
christine thomasTuesday 1st August 2017
Where can you buy weight watchers wraps from please? as everywhere i have tried have discontinued these
regards
christine
Emma TMonday 11th September 2017
Hi Christine,
They are available in many supermarkets – you would have to contact your local store to see if they stock them currently.
