My grandmother is the best at making this meal! Five stars indeed!
Fill the crust with the meat and cheese mixture, pressing it down gently to pack it in.
Cover with the second pie crust, sealing the edges by crimping them together.
Brush the top with beaten egg to ensure a golden finish.
Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Variations & Tips
For a bit of a kick, you can add a teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes to the meat mixture. If you’re looking for a lighter version, consider using ground turkey or chicken instead of beef. For a more robust flavor, try adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce or a dollop of Dijon mustard to the filling. Vegetarians can substitute the meat with a mix of sautéed mushrooms and lentils, providing a similar texture and depth of flavor. For a different twist, experiment with different cheese combinations like Gruyère or blue cheese to suit your taste preferences.
