savoury pies

There seems to be a theme around here currently.  It is pie.  More specifically savoury pies.

I have filled them with vegetarian picadillo.

I filled a pie with saag paneer and a pie with saag paneer and dal.  Both were incredible.  I have been using the hot water crust pastry that is featured in many savoury pies on the Great British Bake Off.  I have been using a recipe from someone who is auditioning for the show.  I would not change anything about the crust other then make sure to bring the water to just a boil and do not boil further.  You do not wish to lose much moisture to steam.

I have been cooking all my pies for 50 minutes at 200 degrees C or 400 degrees Fahrenheit.  I have one oven that is digital so that works.  This has become a household favorite.
