Easy Mince and Cheese Pie

This Kiwi classic easy mince and cheese pie will become a family favourite in your home. The recipe is for a family-sized pie; however, you can use it to fill smaller hand-held-sized pies.

Traditionally I like to serve it with mashed potato and peas.

I have used frozen pastry sheets for this recipe, but you could make your own if you would prefer.

I like to use short crust pastry for the bottom as it gives it a sturdier base than the flaky. However, you can just use flaky if you would like to.

The filling should have a thick gravy texture so that the filling stays in the pie. Use a little more stock if required to form a thick glossy gravy. If it is too runny add more thickening until you have a nice rich thick gravy.

Ways to cook the easy mince and cheese pie

In the video that I have linked below I show you how to cook the mince in my pressure cooker. If you don’t have one, it is fine to just use a frying pan. The recipe card tells you how to cook it using a frying pan.

Don’t forget to add some tomato sauce (ketchup) on the side.
