Pie Filling

2. Add oregano, tomato paste, water, Worcestershire sauce and psyllium. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for further 5 mins (cook longer if not thick enough). Set aside

3. Lightly spray muffin tins (we used silicon trays to avoid sticking)

Creating Pie Cases

1. Divide dough into two portion (one for the base and one for the top) divide dough at roughly 70/30 ratio

   

2. Divide the 70% into 12 even portions. Roll each portion into a ball then flatten with palm to create flat disc shape, approximately 5mm in thickness. Press each disk into each muffin mould and pierce base lightly fork lightly.

   
3. Place in oven for 10mins

4. While cooking, portion remaining dough into 12. Roll into ball and flatten with palm to create disc the size of the pie tops.

5. Remove pie bases from oven, fill with meat filling and place disc of remaining dough on top, pressing around edges to seal. Pierce with fork.

   

6. Cook for a further 20min or until golden. Remove from oven and serve with your favourite tomato sauce.
