Meat Pie Recipe

Prep Time 1 hour
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 45 minutes
Servings 3

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter cubed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup Ice water
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 3 carrots cubed
  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1 potato cubed
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Rub in flour, salt and butter until it resembles the consistency of bread crumbs.
  2. Add the water little by little mixing the dough until all the bits of flour and water are incorporated. If you add too much water the dough will be sticky.
  3. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and rest it in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven at 350F.
  5. Mix the meat and the vegetables and add pepper and salt.
  6. Lightly flour a flat surface and your rolling pin. Roll out your dough starting from the centre, turning it around. Do not try to stretch your dough it will just come back to its original size. Roll it out to about a quarter inch thick.
  7. To make the pies I use a plate and cut around it with a knife and then place the filling on one size to allow to fold over.
  8. Moisten the edges with water to make "glue" and fold over. You can use a fork to press the edges or use your hands like I did. I place the pies on a lined baking sheet to make for easy cleaning.
  9. Brush the pies with milk and bake for 45 minutes.
