Meat pie

The meat pie you can make in multiple ways, we have prepared a meat pie very easy to prepare and very tasty.

There are so many possible fillings under the name of meat pie that we can start with the meat itself, in this case, we have chosen the minced meat but you can put a breast of chicken or veal chopped, goes in tastes.

Ingredients:

Mass

• 300 grams of flour
• An envelope of baker's yeast
• 100 ml of water
• A pinch of salt

Fill

• An onion
• Olive oil
• 1/4 red bell pepper
• 250 grams of minced meat
• Sweet paprika or food coloring

Preparation dough:

To prepare the dough of pie we are going to use a tall container in which we'll take the flour along with the yeast and the pinch of salt. Stir a second to integrate the dry ingredients , and then we started to gradually add the warm water. Continue stirring until well-integrated.

Risks. If you've gone pouring water, you can take a little bit of flour, little by little, while you work the dough until you see that you get a uniform mass. The marks in the center with a finger, the caps with a clean dish towel and let it levedar for about 25 minutes.

Preparation of the filling

In our case, by having the ground beef already prepared, the only thing we have done is put it in a bowl with a little salt (optional, sprinkled a little ground pepper).

After we have added the onion cleaned and cut in julienne (thin strips). We've taken a teaspoon of sweet paprika (not spicy) and stir to get all the parts, then pour olive oil (features that we will use it also to paint the pie and that has color).

When it is well seasoned, put the meat to one side so that the oil is separate and is easier to use for the next steps.

Preparation of the pie:

Once you have gone through the 25 minutes and the dough has doubled, it is time to divide it in two. We need that one of the parties is a little larger than the other, since the greatest will be the that we use as a base and will cover a little bit small to make the edges.

On a smooth surface and dry, we'll take a little bit of flour to prevent sticking the dough and then place the larger mass to make the base. You can use a roller to extend the basis, the measure will be a little bigger the container you use to make the pie, we use the oven tray.

We have put a baking paper on the oven tray, and we added a bit of olive oil to the mix, we have spread with a brush over the entire surface. After we have set the base and on top we have placed all the padding, well spread.

After, we prepare the lid of the pie as we prepared the base. You see that it has the appropriate dimensions (a little smaller but that cover) and closed with the fingers forming a kind of roll, close and press with your fingers to mark it.

Once you have it, you click the base of the pie, and included the spring rolls, pints with the rest of the olive oil with paprika that we had prepared (if it is necessary to prepare a little more) and put it in the oven for approximately 40 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees (preheated oven).

In my family, we usually give the round to the pie so that it is crispy on both sides, so that with a knife we give in the surface to see if it is crunchy and hard. After he pulls out, let it cool a little bit, is short and to enjoy every bite.
