Ingredients

  • Quick Flaky pastry
  • 4 rashes bacon, lightly cooked and chopped
  • 1 cup cooked peas
  • 1 cup chopped cooked potatoes or kumara
  • 5 large eggs

Directions

  1. Follow the steps on making the flaky pastry here. Roll out on a floured board to make 2 thin rounds to fit a 23cm pie plate.

  2. Ease one lot of pastry into a lightly greased pie plate.

  3. Spread half the bacon, peas and potatoes into it. Crack the eggs into a separate bowl. Break the yolk and stir gently with a folk until the eggs looks streaky. Pour half the eggs over the mixture in the crust.

  4. Add the rest of the bacon, peas and potatoes. Dribble the rest of the eggs over the top.

  5. Moisten the edge of the pastry. Place the other pastry over the top of the filling.

  6. Trim the edges and crimp using a folk or your fingers. With a thin knife, stab the centre twice to make a ‘+’ hole. Decorate the pie with the trimmings.

  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 200C for 20-25 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and the filling set.
