Delicious and simple is this Canadian meat pie. The recipe itself is enough for 16 pieces and will delight people of all ages.
Ingredients:
- 1 bunch parsley
- 2x onions
- 2x cloves of garlic
- 305 grams butter
- 750 grams minced meat (mixed)
- 1x bay leaf
- 1 tsp paprika sweet spice
- ½ tsp ground clove
- ½ tsp savory dried
- 375 grams flour + 2 tbsp extra
- 200 ml milk + 2 tsp extra
- 250 grams turkey breast cut into pieces
- 1x egg
- fat and flour
- salt and pepper
- Cling film
Preparation:
- Wash and chop the parsley. Peel the onions and garlic, chop the onions finely and press the garlic.
- Heat 30 g of the butter and sauté the onions and garlic in it. Add the minced meat and fry for about 5 minutes, turning. Add the parsley and bay leaf. Season to taste with all the spices. Take 2 tbsp. flour for dusting. After briefly sweating, extinguish with 200 ml milk and 200 ml water. Simmer in an open pot for about 10 minutes, stirring. Then cool down.
- Mix 375 grams of flour and ½ tsp salt in a bowl. Add 275 grams of butter in flakes and 4-5 tbsp of cold water as well. Knead with dough hook and hand mixer and help later with your hands. Cut off 1/3 of the dough, wrap both parts in foil and put in the fridge for about 1 hour.
- Cut the turkey breast into pieces (approx. 1 cm). Roll out the large piece of dough to approx. 32 Ø and place in a greased and floured pie dish. Press the edge lightly. Fold the turkey cubes into the cold meat filling and place in the tin.
- Roll out the rest of the pastry to approx. 26 cm Ø and place on top of the filling. Now press the edges of the pastry together. Make a hole in the middle of the pastry lid.
- Roll out the rest of the pastry and cut out maple leaves. Separate the eggs and brush the leaves thinly with egg white. Decorate the top with the egg white.
- Bake in the oven at 200 degrees (fan 175 degrees, gas mark 3) for about 45 minutes. Now mix the egg yolk with 1-2 tsp milk, brush the pie with it and bake for another 5 minutes until golden brown.
