Makes about 12-14 pies
Ingredients:
For the pastry:
4 cups (500g) all-purpose flour
200g cold Butter, cubed
2 Eggs
1 teaspoon Salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup (60ml) cold water
For the filling:
3/4 pound (350g) Ground beef
1 Potato, peeled and diced into small cubes
1 Large Onion, chopped
1 Large Carrot, peeled and diced
1 cup (240ml) Water/beef broth
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1 teaspoon Thyme
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons Oil
1 egg for brushing
Directions:
1. Make the pastry: in a large bowl mix together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Add cubed butter and rub it with the flour until you get a crumbly texture.
2. Beat 2 eggs with cold water and add it to the flour mixture, mix until dough is formed. Do not over mix! Wrap the dough with cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. Make the filling: in a large pan heat oil. Add onion and sauté for 5-6 minutes, until translucent. Add diced carrots and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the meat and cook, breaking it apart, for 4-5 minutes, until no longer pink. Season with salt, pepper, thyme and flour. stir and cook for 2 minutes more.
4. Add in cubed potatoes stir well. Pour in the water/broth. Stir.
5. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, until thickens. Set aside to cool.
6. Preheat oven to 350F (175C).
7. Divide the dough into 2-4 pieces (you also can roll the whole dough, dividing it just making it easier to work). Roll out the dough into 1/8-inch (1/4 cm) thickness. Cut out a round shape with your desired sized. Combine all the leftover dough and roll it again to make more circles.
8. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the meat mixture in the center, brush the edges with water and fold over the dough. Seal it with your fingers or with a fork. Poke the pies with a fork to create a steam outlet while baking brush the pies with beaten egg.
9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden. Cool slightly before serving.

Q a
Amazing! Exactly how my mom and I used to make our meat pies. She is gone now and I haven't made them in more than 20 years. This brought memories, tears and a longing for days gone by. Thank you, God bless you.
So sorry about that may her soul rest in peace Amen
i am so sorry:(
So sorry about your mum
I hope your doing ok!
So sorry dear
Am a Nigeria and am glad watching this.. thank you so much.. much love
Can we appreciate how nicely he chopped them carrots and onions?
No because that’s how it’s supposed to be.
@@chefdehumanitarian9236 yeah that's nice Mr chefdehumanitarian9236, not everybody is as perfect as the next person 🤡

This recipe is GOLD!
I didn't have beef broth, so I added extra seasoning/spices (Maggi cubes, curry, thyme, etc., what I usually use in boiling meat) to the filling for extra flavour and it turned out so well.
I also added the carrots after the potatoes cos I didn't want it to cook for long.
When I treated the filling, I knew I was on the path to greatness 😂 it was so delicious!
The dough was simple to make as well. I made a mistake while making the dough (I forgot to add water to the eggs), so I couldn't form it for a while, but I added a bit of water and flour and just kept kneading it hoping for the best. Thankfully it formed nicely and didn't affect the pie at all.
I've been avoiding trying out meat pie on my own cos I didn't want to work with dough, but I didn't find it hard at all. I felt so proud. Thank you!
I'm Nigerian myself living abroad where it's hard to find people who make real meat pie, not the sugary fakes I find everywhere 😂
I'm so glad to find a recipe I can follow easily. It hardly leaves an aftertaste too!
I'll definitely check out your other recipes as well 😊
This pie version is 10 times better than my precious recipie.. I tried today and it was perfect very moist inside and flaky outside ... highly recommended 😊!
Thanks your comment made me to stand up and try it that's what I need
This savory snack is a must in most Nigeria parties. They are so delicious and one of my best snack

It's tasty and satisfying😊

I have been looking all over for this recipe and this came out
perfectly. Thanks so much for this recipe, you make it look so easy.
This recipe is easy and straight to the point. As I type this, mine is a minute ready in the oven. Broke one and the dough is this crispy 😊😊❤..it's my first time of singlehandedly making meat pie and it came out very nice. Highly recommended!!😊
Thank you so much for sharing❤❤❤
Oh i just tasted it now, i made a mistake, i used a little too much oil for the pie filling and didn't add enough flour to thicken it..so it's doing oshmirin-mirin in my mouth... I'll adjust this next time 😌
It's the oshmirin mirin for me 😂

Yum! I’m down with meat pies any day of the week 👍
I am doing a group project on West Africa and the British Empire
This is a GREAT 👍🏾 recipe
Thank u soooooo much
This is the same as Scottish Meat Pasty, which is delicious. When I went to a secondary School in 1961, it was also one of the basic recipes taught at good old Cookery Lessons. I would come from School make a batch just like that for my Parents and us 6 children once every 9/10days as Mum kept our meals varied. Loved making them.
Unexpected visitors called, made a batch of scones or fairy cakes in time for tea.
No biscuits available to set out in our house.
Will we ever see a black bun recipe? 😋
Lovely memories!
Seems to be the same as slavic chebruiki
Nostalgia! Best times ever!❤️
no its not the same. period.
Just what I've been looking for. Looks yummy!
I’m a Nigerian, thank you for this. I’m about to make it

One of the reasons I thumbed this video up. No talking, just cooking and the video explains itself. Am more interested in what they are about present as in "Food recipe" and not a long speech or how beautiful they look.
I have baked Nigerian meat pie before. This looks really good, i will be trying this.
Super Thank you

Perfectly done.I'm highly impressed..love from🇳🇬🇳🇬
Great recipe, that pastry looks so good, a must try for me too, thank you
Thank you. I am a Nigerian and I used your recipe to make meat pie for the first time in my life. I think I used too much butter, cos the dough was a little hard to roll and cut. Other than that, it turned out great. Thank you for sharing this video.
Too much butter will make it soft...I used the exact amount and it's soft but I want to add less next time
I decided it's time to make this recipe cause I cannot always wait for my friends to make meatpie!! Although I also tasted the version with fish, I like it with the meat better^^
Ever since trying your shepards pie recipe and it turned out amazing, i’m going to be trying this
I am very excited
Hope you will like it 😊
Very easy to follow, straight to the point
You make it look so easy thanks
I'm a Nigerian nice recipe

oop sorry for caps
Thanks awesomeness mine came out good thanks again
Me encanta las empanadas muy ricas para compartir con amistades y un delisioso café .
Me gusta para un delicioso café la mañana gracias😋☕️
I made this today and it was mad delicious. I used the Knorr beef stock pot. Omgoodness it was freaking tasty. I will definitely make this again and again and again!!!! Thanks for sharing your recipe
Glad you liked it 👍
Where can I get the Knorr beef stock pot in Lagos Nigeria. By the way, is it in liquid form?
@gloriaonyeiwu9404
I think you can make this yourself by simply cooking your beef tender and chewy as you like it with the Knorr maggi beef or chicken cube (which can be gotten in any store or market in Nigeria) and other spices. The broth from this is what I think she was referring to. You can add it into your minced meat-veggie mix to cook nicely for the meat pie as the Foodie described.
Fantastic recipe! Mine turned out beautifully. Thank you 😊
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
meat pies look soft and yummy

they didn’t season it enough that a a big no no and they did add enough butter
Easy and straight to the point
It looks soooo delicious
Ohhhhhhhhh my 🤤 that looks scrumptious. ❤
A Cornish pasty more or less.
Not that it matters. All that matters is how it tastes - and this looks as though it tastes wonderful.
And I'm going to know soon enough... 😋
Buenos días me encanta mucho muy deliciosos gracias☀️😋☕️
Thanks ma'am very nice recipe 👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻may ALLAH bless you all the best 👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻❤️

I am from Cameroon, I know this very well, thanks. Now am home sick 😣😉👍

Thanks u made it easy
Amazing recepie
Will try
I made these. Very labor intensive and my kitchen looks like a tornado hit it, but they tasted great! Thanks for posting the recipe!
Try making the pastry the day before and wrap put in fridge for next day! I find this really helps! Take it out half an hour before you need to roll out!😊
Vraiment super merci
Wonderful recipe!
I will try this.
This look really good now im hungry
I just tried this recipe,I chose to use 50g extra of butter to see what would happen.The pies are delicious and moist but I could see the excess butter when I used a fork to check if they were done.My shapes weren’t perfect even though I had a plastic pie cutter.
Practice makes perfect-I will try it again maybe in two weeks time.
Great recipe, well done! Many thanks for this recipe!👍😊

LOVE IT
This recipe saved my life, no joke! I suggest it to every human being
Great
Nice because of you in doing it right now🎉
Really nice video! Interestingly I don’t add sugar and eggs to make my pastry and it comes out tasting nice like sausage roll pasty.
What do you use to replace egg?
@@toyinyemi4951 For the pastry, I use just 5 ingredients: flour, salt, baking powder, butter and water. I have a video on how I make the pastry on my channel if you would like to check it out.
