Heres an overview and the video below is quite helpful.
Use large muffin tins or ramekins, or make one giant pie!
I got mine from Woolies.
Store bought, all the way for me.
Then puff pastry for that classic flaky meat pie lid we love and know so well!
Meat Pie Filling
Heres what goes in the meat pie filling.
For convenience, use store bought for both if you wish.
In Australia, shortcrust pastry comes frozen in square sheets.
If youre in the US or Canada, use refrigerated pie crusts (the rolled up punch in).
If this happens, just take some out.
Just cant achieve the same sauce flavour using mince (but still so SO tasty!)
Secondly, as with all stews, the filling is even better the next day!
Still tasty but very messy!
To smear or not to smear?
?To this day, I cannot believe there are people who eat meat pies without tomato sauce.
I really give a shot to respect personal preferences….. but I will never understand!
Hands or knife and fork?Knife and fork?
?Shame on you!The Aussie meat pie ismadefor eating with your hands!!!
Worth the effort!
It will take you the better part of a day to make homemade meat pies.
Its quite involved and theyre especially fiddly because were making individual pies rather than one large pie.
Are they as good as what you’ve got the option to buy?
Better than your everyday bakery by a long shot, even using store bought pastry.
Way WAY better than the average frozen meat pies from the supermarket.
There are no words.
There is simply no question.
Its one of the best food experiences in the world!
