FAQS

  1. What is the best way to store leftover savory meat pie?

    To store leftover savory meat pie, allow it to cool completely, then wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. You can also place it in an airtight container. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, consider freezing it; it can last up to 2-3 months in the freezer.

  2. Can I make savory meat pie with ground turkey or chicken instead of pork and beef?

    Yes, you can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground pork and beef in the savory meat pie recipe. Just be aware that the flavor and texture may differ slightly, so you might want to adjust the spices to enhance the taste.

    Savory meat pie pairs well with a variety of side dishes. Consider serving it with a fresh green salad, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes for a hearty meal. You can also serve it with a side of gravy or a tangy chutney for added flavor.

  4. How can I make the pie crust from scratch for my savory meat pie?

    To make pie crust from scratch for your savory meat pie, combine 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour with 1 cup of cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Add a pinch of salt and mix until crumbly. Gradually add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Chill for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.

  5. What spices can I use as a substitute for savory spices in the meat pie?

    If you don't have savory spices on hand, you can substitute with a mix of thyme, rosemary, and sage for a similar flavor profile. Alternatively, Italian seasoning can also work well to enhance the taste of your savory meat pie.
