Instructions to make Meat pie:
Dice your potatoes, onions and carrots and set aside.
Place a pot or wok on a hob on medium heat. Add the vegetable oil, when it’s hot, add the onions and sauté till translucent
Now add the mince meat, stir thoroughly to break up clumps. Fry for 2-3 minutes or till it loses its pinkness
Add the diced potatoes and carrots, then add a cup of water, also add the seasoning cubes, thyme, curry powder, garlic powder and salt to taste, cover and let it cook till the vegetables are soft
While that’s cooking, mix 2 tablespoons of flour with 1/2 cup of water, mix till you get a milky consistency and set aside. - When the vegetables are well cooked, add the flour and water mixture, mix thoroughly…
Now switch the heat off and let it continue to simmer with the residual heat for 2-3 minutes
The dough method
Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together then sift to get rid of clumps…
Add the margarine/ baking butter
Mix the margarine with the flour till you get a bread crumbs like consistency
Create a little well in the mixture, add the water gradually, be careful not to pour it all in at once, you may not need it all.
Work and knead the dough till you get a thick and non sticky dough. Now wrap it up in cling film and leave for about 1 hour
Break an egg into a small plate, whisk and set aside. - After an hour, take out the dough and place on a flat surface. You’ll notice the consistency of the dough has improved and is more manageable
Now knead for a bit, be careful not to over knead. Now cut the dough into smaller pieces and roll. Get yourself a dough cutter or just a saucepan lid and cut out circles. The size of the circle will depend on your intended pie size
Now scoop up 1-2 tablespoons of filling unto the middle of the cut out dough; making sure there’s enough room to seal it up.
Now, rub the egg mixture on the edges of the dough, this will help seal it up properly Now close it up and use a fork to press down the edge, you can also use meatpie cutter
Repeat the same process with the remaining dough, rolling, cutting and filling till you’ve exhausted your dough and filling then place all your pies all on the baking tray and lightly glaze the top of each pie with the whisked egg.Now place the tray in the pre heated oven and bake for 30-40 minutes.
