Title: Tourtire
Keywords: pies, pork, Canada
Yield: 1 pie
1 Double crust pastry
1/3 lb Veal
1/3 lb Beef
1/3 lb Pork
1 md Onion; minced
1/4 c Water
2 sl Bread; or
1 sm Potato; boiled & mashed
3/4 ts Salt
1/4 ts Pepper
1/8 ts Cloves, ground
1/8 ts Cinnamon, ground
Preheat oven to 425 F. Prepare pastry. Reserve some for top crust and
line 9" pie plate with remainder.
Brown meat and drain fat. Add onion and spices. Crumb the bread (or
mash the potato); mix in water and fold in meat mixture. Check spices.
Cool and place mixture into uncooked pie shell. Cover with top crust,
seal and flute edge. Bake in a hot oven until browned. Baked toutiere
may be frozen. To serve, reheat in a moderate oven about 30 minutes.
Note: The reason why I mix bread or a baked potato in the meat is so
that the pie is juicy, not runny. What you want to do is prevent the
pie from drying up but you don't want it to be soggy and spoil the
pastry. You can omit the bread and potato if you prefer, but you should
still add the 1/4 c. water. Also, I find it much more tasty if there is
lots of cinnamon and cloves.
Oh, I almost forgot! Make sure you serve with lots of ketchup!!!
