I like the food coloring much better than egg wash. Also the idea of refrigerating before cooking was awesome. I made 8 pies today, just now. I refrigerated one tray while working on the second tray. Then, the first tray went from the frig to the oven and the second tray went in the frig. It worked out so well. I forgot to poke the top of the pies to vent, but all came out good and pretty and yummy, and not one bust. I was so proud of myself. Thanks for sharing your recipe, we love it. God Bless.

Hello Melissa thank you for your feedback. Appreciate you reaching out. Maybe you’re over filling you pies and the pastry is not closed well. When you leave your pies in the freezer for 10 minutes or more that also help to settle the pineapple filling even the pastry. There is Science involved in a cold pastry from the fridge or freezer into a hot oven. I can’t explain it but it works for me. May I suggest you try the following 1. Do not over fill your pies 2. Make your filling a little thicker not too runny 3. Close the ends well 4. Leave the pies in the freezer for sometime maybe up to 1/2 hour before you put it straight into your preheated oven to bake. Hopefully that helps. Pls let me know Melissa how go. I am also trialling another pie recipe and will be uploading in the next week. I will definitely come back next week. Thanks. Best of luck and happy baking! Remember baking is like anything the more we practice the more we can do well in something and so the same goes with making pies. Take care and thank you again🙏🙏💜
Well tonight i tried making the pies "second attempt😬" the first time i failed but then i tried again. And wow; they turned out perfectly. And they tasted so yummy😊 thankyou so much for sharing your cooking skills very much appreciated. Milz would you be able to show us how to do the pai penu pls, i would love to have a go at that one. Thankyou
Hello Thelma, thank you for your kind feedback. Thank you for sharing with me. I’m happy it turned out okay after your second attempt. I guess it’s true with the saying Practice makes perfect. It takes practise to be able to get good results. The more you do the more ideas you have to add to perfect your artwork. That’s my way of looking at cooking adding my imaginations and ideas sometimes it turn out okay sometimes it turns out burn or hard 😂😂😂 anyway I shall make pai Penu for sure very soon. Pls bare with me. I’m getting through all the requests from our wonderful community but I promise I will Thelma don’t worry I’ll do it very soon. Take care always my friend and thanks again for the support 🙏🙏💝
Thank you sis. I've been saving a old pai fala recipe that I've never gotten around to make. But I decided to look for a different recipe because I was looking for one that has custard in the filling and coconut milk in the crust. Bingo! I'm very excited to find your recipe! It's perfect! I don't like the fillings that have no custard because it tastes really jelly like. I'm going to make it for my kids. Thank you again for sharing your delicious recipe! Alofa Atu ❤️. P.s. new Subscriber 😊
Talofa Tiare, thank you so much for stopping by and for subscribing to my channel. I hope you'll enjoy the recipe. I have one of the viewers requested for me to make a a different flavour of the same pie instead of pineapple. I was asked to make either peach or cocktail flavour with different fruits I guessed so that will be coming out soon. Of course I will be using custard too. I agree with ya 💯 % I don't like using the pineapples and corn flour alone. Take care to you and family and Welcome again to my channel and the family !!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
I tried ur recipe tonight, I didn’t add the food coloring cause I didn’t have none, it’s a trial an error for me lol but it came out good I think my crust was too thin any suggestions on how to improve this?
Hello@samoa1909, thank you for your feedback. I think you might have to be more generous with your dough and not to roll it too thin. Hope that helps, like you said it’s a matter of having a go at it few times before you get it right the way you want it. Thanks again🙏❤️
Hi Sandy, I shall try to make them flavours that you requested. I was planning to make a caramel coconut flavour but I will do fruit cocktail and peach flavour first👌 thank you for stopping by🙏🏻❤️
@@sandytago3882 you're right there's a lot of recipes and everyone has their own. Let me know what you think if you do decide to make them. Take care Sandy and stay tune for the requested flavours👌
Hi Denise thank you for stopping by. Yes I didn't add eggs to the this recipe. The pineapple pie in the baking dish I added eggs and it has a different texture too the pastry but for this one I don't add eggs. I only add butter, coconut cream and flour with small amount of sugar. I follow a recipe of one of my aunties with a little tweak to it. I hope that make sense to you. Thank you Denise🙏🏻💕
Hi milz, thank you for sharing this lovely recipe! Can’t wait to try it 😊 Just wondering if you used the palagi measuring cup or the island measuring cup (mug)? 😁

Hi Fuipua, pls find the full recipe attached. You can find any of the recipes that I have shared in the description area below the video. Thank you for viewing my videos. Take care always 🙏🏻
I have followed you for so many yummy pastries. I think my dough measurements is wrong it's the butter part. Yours is 150 grams butter and our US conversion is 3/4 cup or 1 stick butter please let me know if that's correct.
Talofa Ahmanda, I'm so sorry for the late reply. I've been really sick with the flu when we arrived last Sunday here in Utah. The change of weather from our winter weather back home in Melbourne to windy and hot weather here in Utah. Hope you're well with family. Thank you for taking your time to view my contents and recipes. Yes sister that's the conversion on google but now I'm here and trial the pie here with your butter and I used your 1 stick and a half butter and it turned out well too. I guess you play around with your measurements until you get the exact texture of pastry you'll be happy with if that makes sense to you sis. 🙏🏻❤️
Thanks very much I'll try your recipe it's very delicious and easy God bless you for sharing have good Easter Faafetai lava faamanuia le Atua I lau afioga alofa tele mo le faasoa ❤❤

God bless you and family🙏🏻❤️❤️ love from Milz and family
Hi Tee. Pls forgive me for the super late response. For some weird reasons I thought I have replied. Anyway if you don't have custard powder you can use corn flour. A lot of people do use corn flour.
Quick question… in the written recipe you have Coconut milk for the pastry but in the video you kept saying coconut cream. Which should I use? And also, for the butter… is it room temp or cold? I really want to try your recipe but I don’t want to mess it up lol. Sorry, don’t mean to be fa’akiga ulu to you just need a little help lol😂. Love your channel btw… Thank you❤🙏🏼
Hello Princessiwalani, thank you for pointing that out. It is coconut cream not coconut milk. Sorry I will definitely correct the written recipe. I used straight cold butter from the fridge dear. I've never tried the recipe with room temp butter maybe I should to see the difference in the pastry. Pls no need to say sorry I appreciate you for picking up that error in the written recipe. Thank you again for your kindness and taking time to view my videos. Take care. Love from Milz and aiga 🙏🏻❤️
@@mealswithmilz Faafetai, faafetai lava for the response and for the help. So, because I didn’t hear from you before trying the recipe I did it with the rm temp butter and the coconut milk. The pies came out delicious but there was definitely a differenc in the crust compared to your thumbnail lol. Mine was thinner and softer. Still very good but I will try again with the adjustments. Again, thank you for taking the time to help me out. I’m just trying to be like you🥰…. Thanx again, alofa atu❤️🙏🏼
@@princessiwalaniuta7750 thank you for your feedback sorry I took longer to reply. I guess cooking it's like anything we have to keep trying and trialling ingredients until you get the textures taste etc that we're after. Thank you so much for sharing your feedback too and the support. It means alot🙏🏻❤️
@@milesseuoti4153 sorry for the late response. I’ve been driving all day 8 hours drive from one state to another. If don’t have custard flour you can just replace it with corn flour hope that helps. Some people use corn flour instead of custard powder. 🙏😊
I love your recipe, very easy to follow and love the use of coconut milk as its got its own tastes. I also love how you cook your fillings too, no hard work just simple instructions. Awesome 👌. I love your pai Fala. I make a totally different way, but haven't used it as for half moon pie. I use mine for the tray pie. Marangue pies. But, this is delicious talking about it lol... love it. Thank you for sharing with us.. I'm going to change to half moon pie now.
Hello Natasha, for sure dear. A lot of people use cornstarch instead of custard powder. make it your way. I just like the custard taste to mine but cornstarch is used a lot too by many. alofa atu. Milz🙏🏻❤️
@Meals with Milz, my apologies i forgot to ask,how many tbsp of butter will 150grams be??..i weighed my butter but it looks more then what you have on video lol

And they tasted so yummy😊 thankyou so much for sharing your cooking skills very much appreciated. Milz would you be able to show us how to do the pai penu pls, i would love to have a go at that one. Thankyou
Hello Thelma, thank you for your kind feedback. Thank you for sharing with me. I’m happy it turned out okay after your second attempt. I guess it’s true with the saying Practice makes perfect. It takes practise to be able to get good results. The more you do the more ideas you have to add to perfect your artwork. That’s my way of looking at cooking adding my imaginations and ideas sometimes it turn out okay sometimes it turns out burn or hard 😂😂😂 anyway I shall make pai Penu for sure very soon. Pls bare with me. I’m getting through all the requests from our wonderful community but I promise I will Thelma don’t worry I’ll do it very soon. Take care always my friend and thanks again for the support 🙏🙏💝
@@mealswithmilz Thankyou so much beautiful God Bless
Thank you sis. I've been saving a old pai fala recipe that I've never gotten around to make. But I decided to look for a different recipe because I was looking for one that has custard in the filling and coconut milk in the crust. Bingo! I'm very excited to find your recipe! It's perfect! I don't like the fillings that have no custard because it tastes really jelly like. I'm going to make it for my kids. Thank you again for sharing your delicious recipe! Alofa Atu ❤️. P.s. new Subscriber 😊
Talofa Tiare, thank you so much for stopping by and for subscribing to my channel. I hope you'll enjoy the recipe. I have one of the viewers requested for me to make a a different flavour of the same pie instead of pineapple. I was asked to make either peach or cocktail flavour with different fruits I guessed so that will be coming out soon. Of course I will be using custard too. I agree with ya 💯 % I don't like using the pineapples and corn flour alone. Take care to you and family and Welcome again to my channel and the family !!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
@@mealswithmilz 🙏❤️🌈
@@mealswithmilz looking forward to your new spin on the pies!🥰
@@tiare5022 thank you dear. Alofa atu take care🙏🏻❤️
How many can you do from that dough please
I was able to get 7 large size or average size that is sold at the shops or bakeries. Thank you Samuelu🙏🏻
Looks so tasty ❤
Thank you so much 🙏🏻❤️
Recipe please sis 👍❤️😋 keep it up
I tried ur recipe tonight, I didn’t add the food coloring cause I didn’t have none, it’s a trial an error for me lol but it came out good I think my crust was too thin any suggestions on how to improve this?
Hello@samoa1909, thank you for your feedback. I think you might have to be more generous with your dough and not to roll it too thin. Hope that helps, like you said it’s a matter of having a go at it few times before you get it right the way you want it. Thanks again🙏❤️
Can you make peach or fruit cocktail pie please.
Hi Sandy, I shall try to make them flavours that you requested. I was planning to make a caramel coconut flavour but I will do fruit cocktail and peach flavour first👌 thank you for stopping by🙏🏻❤️
@@mealswithmilz awe thank you so much. I see lots of different recipe from our people and I did try some receipe 😊 can't wait to try yours 🥰
@@sandytago3882 you're right there's a lot of recipes and everyone has their own. Let me know what you think if you do decide to make them. Take care Sandy and stay tune for the requested flavours👌
Those are pretty
Thank you so much Carla🙏🏻❤️
Thank you for sharing
I notice there is no eggs added ?
Please can you respond thank you
Hi Denise thank you for stopping by. Yes I didn't add eggs to the this recipe. The pineapple pie in the baking dish I added eggs and it has a different texture too the pastry but for this one I don't add eggs. I only add butter, coconut cream and flour with small amount of sugar. I follow a recipe of one of my aunties with a little tweak to it. I hope that make sense to you. Thank you Denise🙏🏻💕
@@mealswithmilz
Thank you for the quick response
If I add or not adding eggs
Will the texture of the dough will be different or the same?
Thank you 🙏
Hi milz, thank you for sharing this lovely recipe! Can’t wait to try it 😊 Just wondering if you used the palagi measuring cup or the island measuring cup (mug)? 😁
Hello Tilomai, thank you for your feedback and kind comment. It means a lot🙏🏻🙏🏻 I used the palagi measuring cup for sure. kuu😊💕
So no sugar and no egg for the pastry?

OH MILZ HOLA DIS👍 🥞👁️❤️💪🤠🙏💯YUM YUM THNX SUPER 🤙🏽
Thank you so much for your kindness always. It means a lot to myself and the family. take care always 🙏🏻❤️
I have followed you for so many yummy pastries. I think my dough measurements is wrong it's the butter part. Yours is 150 grams butter and our US conversion is 3/4 cup or 1 stick butter please let me know if that's correct.
Talofa Ahmanda, I'm so sorry for the late reply. I've been really sick with the flu when we arrived last Sunday here in Utah. The change of weather from our winter weather back home in Melbourne to windy and hot weather here in Utah. Hope you're well with family. Thank you for taking your time to view my contents and recipes. Yes sister that's the conversion on google but now I'm here and trial the pie here with your butter and I used your 1 stick and a half butter and it turned out well too. I guess you play around with your measurements until you get the exact texture of pastry you'll be happy with if that makes sense to you sis. 🙏🏻❤️

What if we don’t have custard powder…What can I use for substitute?
Hi Tee. Pls forgive me for the super late response. For some weird reasons I thought I have replied. Anyway if you don't have custard powder you can use corn flour. A lot of people do use corn flour.
Quick question… in the written recipe you have Coconut milk for the pastry but in the video you kept saying coconut cream. Which should I use? And also, for the butter… is it room temp or cold? I really want to try your recipe but I don’t want to mess it up lol. Sorry, don’t mean to be fa’akiga ulu to you just need a little help lol😂. Love your channel btw… Thank you❤🙏🏼
Hello Princessiwalani, thank you for pointing that out. It is coconut cream not coconut milk. Sorry I will definitely correct the written recipe. I used straight cold butter from the fridge dear. I've never tried the recipe with room temp butter maybe I should to see the difference in the pastry. Pls no need to say sorry I appreciate you for picking up that error in the written recipe. Thank you again for your kindness and taking time to view my videos. Take care. Love from Milz and aiga 🙏🏻❤️
@@mealswithmilz Faafetai, faafetai lava for the response and for the help. So, because I didn’t hear from you before trying the recipe I did it with the rm temp butter and the coconut milk. The pies came out delicious but there was definitely a differenc in the crust compared to your thumbnail lol. Mine was thinner and softer. Still very good but I will try again with the adjustments. Again, thank you for taking the time to help me out. I’m just trying to be like you🥰…. Thanx again, alofa atu❤️🙏🏼
@@princessiwalaniuta7750 thank you for your feedback sorry I took longer to reply. I guess cooking it's like anything we have to keep trying and trialling ingredients until you get the textures taste etc that we're after. Thank you so much for sharing your feedback too and the support. It means alot🙏🏻❤️
Sis what if you don’t have custard flour?
@@milesseuoti4153 sorry for the late response. I’ve been driving all day 8 hours drive from one state to another. If don’t have custard flour you can just replace it with corn flour hope that helps. Some people use corn flour instead of custard powder. 🙏😊
beautiful,,seki
Thank you Silia🙏🏻❤️
I love your recipe, very easy to follow and love the use of coconut milk as its got its own tastes.
I also love how you cook your fillings too, no hard work just simple instructions. Awesome 👌. I love your pai Fala. I make a totally different way, but haven't used it as for half moon pie. I use mine for the tray pie. Marangue pies. But, this is delicious talking about it lol... love it. Thank you for sharing with us.. I'm going to change to half moon pie now.
talofa lava, i was wondering if i could replace the custard powder for cornstarch in making the pineapple filling?
Hello Natasha, for sure dear. A lot of people use cornstarch instead of custard powder. make it your way. I just like the custard taste to mine but cornstarch is used a lot too by many. alofa atu. Milz🙏🏻❤️
tailava for your quick response..i will definetly try both ways..much alofas 🙏🏽❤️
@@natashaumaga824 no worries at all thank you for your support. manuia lava le aso to you and family. alofa atu from Milz and aiga🙏🏻❤️
@Meals with Milz, my apologies i forgot to ask,how many tbsp of butter will 150grams be??..i weighed my butter but it looks more then what you have on video lol

Thank you 🙏 😊
