Make your Meat pie
*Lightly flour your working area and turn the dough onto it. Roll the dough out into a large flat, thin circle. *Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line a baking sheet with baking paper and lightly grease it. * Take a saucer and use it to cut out circles from the dough. Dab some water around the edges of the circles using your finger. This is to help seal the pie when you’ve put the filling. *Take the cooled filling and spoon some onto the half side of the circle. Pull the other half over to close the pie and place it onto the prepared baking sheet.
*Repeat process until all the dough is used up. Decorate the edges of each pie with a fork by gently pressing on them. Cut a small slit in the middle of each pie to create an air vent which is needed to let the steam out when the pies are baking. *Lightly brush each pie with a beaten egg. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 mins or until the pies are golden brown. Enjoy!
