FOR THE FILLING
1 1/2 lb hamburger meat
2 beef bullion cubes
1 tsp soy sauce
1 1/2 c water
pinch nutmeg
2 Tbsp flour
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 c additional water
FOR THE PIE BASE AND TOPPING
your favorite pie crust recipe or store bought
1 pkg puff pastry sheet, thawed
1 egg yolk mixed with 1 teaspoon of water to brush on top

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cook meat and drain. Add bullion,1 1/2 cups water,salt,pepper and nutmeg. Stir until it boils,reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Remove from heat.

  • 3. Grease and flour mini pie tins. ( I use foil ones) Line with pie crust of your choice. Fill with the meat mixture. Cut puff pastry to fit over top of pies,sealing the puff pastry to the pie crust around the edges. Brush tops with egg yolk/water mixture.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pies turned out perfect. The only thing I would change next time is to add a bit more salt to the filling.
