SAMOSA PIE
Hot water pastry crusts - technically made with boiling water - are the secret behind classic savory British pies that bake up unfathomably tall, stand on their own power and don't crumble when sliced. Boiling water creates a silky, sturdy dough that is a breeze to roll and form, and also to flavor. This pie from the British author and television host Nadiya Hussain riffs on the lamb samosas she grew up eating with her Bangladeshi family. Here, Ms. Hussain's turmeric-infused crust turns a brilliant golden brown as the pie bakes.

Steps:
- Make the filling: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the ginger, garlic, cumin and red-pepper flakes, and cook until fragrant, a minute or two. Add the lamb and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking into small pieces, until it is just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the potatoes, cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and let everything steam, stirring once halfway through, until the potatoes are just soft, about 20 minutes.
- Uncover, stir in the peas and cook until just heated through, a minute or two. Stir in the cornstarch slurry, then turn off the heat and stir in the cilantro. Season to taste with salt, and let cool completely before building the pie.
- When the filling has cooled, arrange an oven rack in the lowest position and heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Make the pastry: Whisk the flour, salt and turmeric in a large heatproof mixing bowl. Create a small well in the center.
- In a small pot, bring 2/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon/165 grams water and the shortening to a boil over medium heat. As soon as the shortening has melted completely into the boiling water, pour the mixture into the well in the flour. Use a wooden spoon to quickly stir the hot water into the flour, making sure everything gets wet. As soon as it is cool enough to handle, knead the dough with your hands in the bowl or on a clean work surface until it comes together in a smooth ball.
- Wrap a third of the dough in plastic wrap and set aside. Roll the remaining dough into an 11-inch circle (about 1/8-inch thick) between two large pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Remove one piece of wrap or paper and flip the pastry into an 8-inch springform pan, centering it and using your hands to gently press it into the bottom and against the sides. The dough should be supple and smooth enough that, if you tear it, you can easily patch any holes. Discard the wrap or paper. Add the filling and use the back of a spoon to press it in and level the surface. There should be a 1/2-inch rim of dough above the filling. Brush it with the beaten egg.
- Roll the reserved dough into a 9-inch circle (about 1/8-inch thick) between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Remove one piece of wrap or paper and flip the pastry over the filling, centering it and pushing it down so that it fits snugly. The edge of the top crust will overlap the edge of the bottom crust. Press these two edges together gently against the side of the pan. Using a knife, trim the top of the combined edges to create an even border around the pan, then use your fingers to crimp that bit of dough back down into the pie, sealing the edges.
- Cut a hole in the center of the pie to allow air to escape, brush the top with egg and bake until the top is deep golden brown and firm, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through. Let cool in the pan on a rack for at least 1 1/2 hours before unmolding and serving.

Tips:
- Use store-bought samosa wrappers to save time. If you're short on time, you can use store-bought samosa wrappers instead of making your own. Just be sure to thaw them according to the package directions before using.
- Don't overfill the samosa wrappers. If you overfill the samosa wrappers, they will be difficult to seal and will likely burst open during baking.
- Be careful not to overcook the samosas. Samosas should be cooked until they are golden brown and crispy. If you overcook them, they will become dry and tough.
- Serve the samosas with your favorite dipping sauce. Samosas can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as tamarind sauce, mint chutney, or raita.
Conclusion:
This one-skillet samosa pot pie is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The samosas are filled with a flavorful mixture of vegetables and spices, and the pot pie is topped with a creamy, cheesy sauce. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
