NIGERIAN

MEAT PIE

The Nigerian meat pie is light, slightly flaky and
is stuffed with mainly well-seasoned minced meat,
potatoes and carrots. But, I like going a step fur-
ther, so I added a little twist to my own version of
the Nigerian meat pie. It’s so very easy to prepare
once you follow my recipe closely.

Recipe for the filling:
• 2 cups minced meat (boiled)
• 1 cup of sweet potatoes (diced)
• 1 cup of carrots (diced)
• 1 ball onions (diced)
• 2 cooking spoons vegetable oil
• Beef stock (as needed)(serves as water)
• 1 ball green pepper (diced)
• 2 tbs flour (for thickening)
• 1 tsp curry powder
• 1/2 tsp dried thyme
• Salt (as needed)
• 1 seasoning cube

Recipe for the dough:
• 3 cups of flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 8 tbs of butter
• Nutmeg (or any flavor of your choice)
• 8 tbs water (or as needed)
