FEATURED RECIPE OF THE MONTH

African Meat Pies

Bursting with flavor, these delectable delights are perfect as a snack or as part of a hearty meal.

Ingredients

For the pastry:
  • 500g all-purpose flour
  • 250g unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Cold water (as needed)
For the filling:
  • 300g minced beef (or any meat of your choice)
  • 1 medium-sized potato (peeled and diced into small cubes)
  • 1 medium-sized carrot (peeled and diced into small cubes)
  • 1 small onion (finely chopped)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika or cayenne pepper (adjust to your spice preference)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

Directions

Prepare the Filling:

  • In a skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
  • Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, sautéing until the onions become translucent and fragrant.
  • Stir in the minced meat and cook until browned and fully cooked.
  • Add the diced potatoes and carrots, stirring well to combine.
  • Season the mixture with curry powder, thyme, paprika or cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste.
  • Cook the filling until the vegetables are tender but not mushy. Once done, set the filling aside to cool.

Prepare the Pastry:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients and rub them together with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Gradually add cold water, a few tablespoons at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
  • Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.

Assemble the Meat Pies:

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thickness.
  • Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles of dough (about 4 to 5 inches in diameter).
  • Spoon a generous amount of the cooled meat filling onto one half of each dough circle, leaving enough space around the edges to seal.

Seal and Bake:

  • Beat the egg in a small bowl to create an egg wash.
  • Brush the edges of the dough circles with the egg wash to help seal the pies.
  • Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape, and press the edges together firmly with your fingers or a fork to seal.
  • Place the assembled meat pies on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Brush the tops of the pies with the egg wash to give them a shiny, golden finish.

Bake to Perfection:

  • Bake the African Meat Pies in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden brown color.
  • Once baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
