Meat Pie

By Lola Elise 84 Comments

I got this super-duper meat pie recipe from my sister-in-law(my brother’s wife), who inherited it from her mother. Ultimately, it was brought to my attention by my sister Kamola. We love this meat pie so much that it finds its way to our stomachs quite often. The crust is just to die for. With a perfect crispness, it melts in your mouth, leaving you craving for more! I have been planning to document it for a while now. In fact, I thought that I had already posted it a while ago and I was surprised to find out that I never did… Well, anyway, here it is ladies and gentlemen!

Meat Pie

You can use any meat of your choice BUT ground meat. In this particular pie, ground meat is just not going to taste right. I used my favorite for the meat pie – lamb. As always, I am happy that I did so :) Along with potatoes and onions, this makes a perfect dish you can indulge yourself in. It may not be chocolate, but it won’t take you long to realize that you are addicted to it after your first try (at least I hope so)!

Ingredients for the crust:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 1/2 cups flour (or less)

Ingredients for the filling:

  • 1 lb lamb meat
  • 2 medium onions
  • 2 medium potatoes
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 ground black pepper
  • 1/2 ground cumin
  • 1 egg

Directions:

In a medium bowl mix melted butter, sour cream, 1 egg, baking powder and salt.

If your sour cream is on the thick side, add the first 2 cups of flour and see if you can knead a very soft dough, which will not stick to your hands or to the walls of the bowl. If that doesn’t seem to be enough, add the remaining flour and keep on kneading. Once done kneading, divide the dough into two portions. One portion should be slightly smaller than the other one. Ultimately, bigger portion goes on the bottom of the pie and the smaller one is going to cover the top of the pie. Wrap them with a plastic wrap and set aside to rest.

Preheat the oven at 375F. Thinly chop up the onions. Cut the meat into tiny cubes and cut the potatoes into small cubes, too. Place these 3 ingredients in a medium bowl, add the spices and mix well. Set aside.

Take out the bigger dough ball and roll it into a 12-15 inch circle. Carefully place the dough on top of the baking sheet. I usually roll the dough around the rolling pin and carefully unroll the dough over the baking sheet. The dough is very soft but it should not be a big hassle to work with.

Meat Pie #22 Meat Pie #23

Place the filling evenly on top of the flat dough leaving 2 inches of space on all sides. Following the same steps, roll the second dough, making it slightly smaller than the previous one. Cover the top of the meat mixture with the second dough and seal the edges nicely.

Meat Pie #24 Meat Pie #25

Meat Pie #26 Meat Pie #27

Mix the egg with a little bit of water and brush the top of the pie with it. Make small cuts on top of the dough to help the heat escape. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake until the pie turns golden brown.

Meat Pie #28 Meat Pie #29

It goes quite well on its own or as a side for the soups. I love, love, love this meat pie with our pickled cabbage or plain old spicy dill pickles.

Yummy!!! Bon Appetit!

    Meat pie looks awesome. I’ll planning to bake one using your recipe this week inshallah.
    What kind of flour do you use (AP? unbleached/bleached? brand?), have you ever tried to substitute AP flour and baking soda with self rising flour?

    Thanks for sharing!

      February 18, 2010 at 6:04 pm

      For this particular (and many other ones) recipe I used Unbleached All-Purpose flour.

      Self rising flour is good and would probably work well with this particular recipe, too. However I do not think it would be drastically different than the combo of AP+baking soda.

      If you use one, let me know how your pie turns out! :)

        Lola,

        I wanted to utilize leftover self-rising flour into this recipe, but used AP flour instead. SR has been sitting in my pantry for a while, it might have expired…

        Anyway, pie turned out amazing, thank you so much!

I’ll definitely give it a try, thank you for the recipe. You know what, I’m getting addicted to your blog :)

    Ассалому алайкум, ҳурматли Мансуровлар!
    Гўштли пирог ҳақиқатда жуда ҳам чиройли чиқибди! Вақт топиб биз ҳам пишириб кўрамиз. Кеча шу саҳифани дўстларга ҳам юборгандим. Бугун телефон қилишиб Сизларга раҳмат айтишди. Раҳмат! Шундай ўзбек таомларини дунёга танитаётганларингиз учун ва ажойиб суратлар учун ҳам. Шу овқат ҳақидаги постларингиздаги расмлардан манга туз ва мурчларнинг тушиши олинган расмлар ёқади. Жуда аниқ ва чиройли чиққан. :) Манимча, Насим акани ўзлари расмга олган бўлсалар керак.
    Битта илтимос, Лола опа, агар иложи бўлса, кейинги постларда манти тайёрланиши ҳақида ҳам ёзсангиз дўстларимиз хурсанд бўларди..
    Барча ишларингизда сизларга омад тилайман. Бўш келманг!
    Keep this wonderful work up! THANKS!

      Definitely give this recipe a try, it’s very easy, took me about 30 min to prep and 40 min to bake. I used boneless leg of lamb.

      Sorry it took me sometime to answer your questions Sarah. Camellia is right. It takes about 40 minutes for the pie to fully bake.

      As far as meat concerned, you can use any part of lamb (fillet). I either go for shoulder cut or a leg cut.

      Dear Aleksandra, you can use coconut oil to substitute the dairy. It should be good enough to give you a great crust. Sour cream might be a little problematic to substitute but coconut oil might work wonders for you :D Just make sure not to by the hydrogenated one.

    Hey, I love your blog and your recipes are amazing :) I wanted to ask you something though, I always seem to end up with a sticky dough for some reason (both in the meat pie and the kachapuris) and I don’t know why that is since I use the same quantities as it’s marked on your recipe :( is there a way to make the dough less sticky so it’s easier to work with? like adding more flour or something? sour cream in France is less thick so that is a problem sometimes…
    Thanks a lot and keep up the good work, you’re great! :)

    My mother-in-laws family is Italian and they make a similar pie but use ground beef and tomatoes with the onions and potatoes. They also use a boxed roll mix for the crust. The family always called it Scotcha

    Hi, Lola!
    I just discovered your blog pinning some recipes on Pinterest :-) This pie looks delicious! It reminded me of my Grandma and Mom making BALESH back in my homeland of Tatarstan. I love the idea of sour cream in the dough, it always make the crust oh so soft. And lamb is the favorite of my husband. I will spoil my family very soon with your wonderful pie, and I will be coming for more of your recipes! Thank you so much! Very best wishes,

    Amina~

    Your recipes are amazing! I am an American woman married to a Kyrgyz, and I have used several of your recipes to make dishes that he misses from home. They were all delicious! I have the meat pie in the oven now, I can’t wait to try it!

    My wife and I started making this dish a few years ago and when we are unsure of what to make, return to your meat pie recipe. The crust is one of our favorites and my wife will use it as a pie crust for our fruit pies. This is a certified favorite that even my stubborn 7-year-old will eat.

    *Needs an edit. — there are no measurements for the ground cumin and ground black pepper. Also, a starting point for amount of time in the oven would be nice. Thank you

    Melissa, thank you for bringing that to my attention. I will fix the ingredient list. Aim for a teaspoon of each spice. For baking in the oven I look at the browning of the dough. If I would put it in numbers, I would say the pie will be fully baked at about 40 minutes.

    With much love,

    Lola
