How big is an 850ml pie dish?

[FanellaFidge]

In centimetres? Please, thank you

I think probably about 10cm.
Best to pour 650ml of water in a jug then into a dish ,that should give you a good idea . HTH

850ml even

Thank you... I'm buying online! Recipe says 850ml dish, Tesco says 25cm dish

FF, You can't really equate volume with diameter unless you know the depth. An 850ml Pie Dish will be 1.5 pints.

FF ,thats 10" across, it would be a very shallow pie.
Can I ask is it for savoury of sweet?
As savoury pies tend to be deeper and sweet shallower. IYSWIM

If it were an 850ml dish with a diameter of 25cm then it would have a depth of 6cm (or thereabouts)

It's for Delia's Queen of Puddings.

I wish I had listened in maths

"You will also need a 1½ pint (850 ml) oval pie dish, generously buttered."

Is what it says

I just filled an 18cm dish with 850 ml of water it was 3cm deep

thats quite puzzling - did I go wrong somewhere?

25cm should be plenty of room then?!

Thank you everyone!

if it's for Queen of Puddings, deep is better

you want a good layer of the custardy gunk at the bottom, then the jam then a nice wodge of meringue.

if it's too wide it won't be right!

Thank you Catsmamma... I might wait till next time I'm out to buy one then, instead of buying online!
