Hey there little buddy, are you ready to learn about meat pies? Meat pies are delicious pies that are filled with meat and other yummy ingredients.
First, we need to talk about the crust. The crust is like a big, tasty blanket that wraps up the meat filling inside. It's made from flour, butter, and water. You mix the ingredients together, roll them out flat, and then use a special tool called a "cookie cutter" to make the dough into rounded shapes that will fit into a pie dish.
Now, let's talk about the meat filling. This can be any kind of meat you like, such as beef, chicken, or pork. The meat is cooked in a frying pan with some onions, carrots, and celery until it's nice and tender. Then, we add in some yummy spices like black pepper, thyme, and rosemary to give the meat a great flavor.
Once the meat is all cooked and seasoned, we fill the pie crust with it. We put another layer of crust on top and seal everything together with a fork. Then, we brush the top of the pie with a special egg wash made from eggs and a little bit of milk. This helps the pie get golden brown and crispy on top.
Finally, we bake the pie in the oven until it's hot and bubbly. When it's ready, we take it out of the oven and let it cool down for a little bit. Then, we can cut it into slices and enjoy it as a yummy meal.
Well, there you have it little buddy, that's how we make a delicious meat pie!
