Step 1

To make the doughIn a shallow mixing bowl, add flour, salt, sugar (if using) and butterRub together till all turn to crumbsAdd 100 ml of water and mix till all is combined. If the dough still needs water add a tablespoon of water at a time till you get well combined dough like in pix5Set dough aside in a cool place or a fridge for 30 minutes then you move on to preparing the meaty filling.Yes! Making the dough is that easy but remember, DO NOT overwork it when handling.

Step 2

To make the yummy pie fillingPlace a pan on medium heat and add oil, heat for 2 minutes, add chopped onions and fry till onion is translucent. Add mince to the onion and stir mince till its brown then add curry powder, thyme, stock cube, a pinch of salt and stir till all combine. Reduce the heat if need be to avoid burning.The fat from the mince should make the sauce juicy but if it looks dry, add a cooking spoon (100ml) of water to it. (decant oil if it is too much)Add boiled potatoes and carrots, combine well and cook on a low heat for another 3-5 minutes.The mince should be well cooked now. Now you move on to thickening the mince.Add 2tbsp of flour to a bowl and mix with water to form a paste. Add the paste to the mince meat on the heat and combine well. Leave to cook for another minute. Take off the heat and allow to cool.

Step 3

Rolling the dough and making the meat piePreheat oven at 180C/350FBreak the egg into a bowl, whisk and set asideSprinkle a bit of flour on a plain, clean surface/worktopDivide dough into 2 or 3 places and roll out flat using a rolling pinPlace a circle cutter on the flat dough and cut out into many circles you can get. use a makeshift if you don’t have a cutter. Repeat this process with the rest of the doughAdd the meat filling to the centre of the circled dough, brush one half of the circle with whisked egg and carefully fold over the meat filling making sure the 2 edges touch one another. The aim of the egg is to seal the dough.Close edges by pressing down with the tip of a fork as seen in picture (See step by step picture guide below)Repeat this process for the remaining dough and filling. Place a foil in a baking tray and rub with oil this stops the pie from sticking to the tray when done. Alternatively use a parchment paper.After you have completely filled the pastry, set on a baking tray, egg wash the top and pinch with a forkPlace in the oven and bake for 20-30 minutes at 180C⁰/350F.
