Delight in Tuna & Spinach Pie, a savory blend of tender tuna and fresh spinach encased in a flaky, golden crust.
Tuna & Spinach Pie
Ingredients
Method
Pie Filling:
-
Fry the onion and garlic then add red pepper and cook only for 2 minutes so the pepper won't get too soft.
-
Remove from heat and allow to cool down. Press out the water from the spinach and add to the pan and all the other ingredients, adding the feta cheese last.
-
Add the filling to your pastry case and cover with remaining pastry.
-
Brush the top with a beaten egg and bake in oven 190C/375F until cooked and golden on top.
Shortcrust Pastry
-
Sift the plain flour into the bowl of a stand mixer or food processor.
-
Add the diced butter and mix or pulse until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
-
Gradually add the cold water until the mixture comes together and forms a dough.
-
Tip the mixture onto a surface and gently bring it together with your hands, then shape it into a disc.
-
Wrap in clingfilm and chill for 30 minutes.
Pie Assemble:
-
Preheat oven 180C/350F.
-
Generously butter grease a 28cm pie dish. Roll out half of the pastry and place into your prepared dish.
-
Add filling and level the surface.
-
Close the pie with remaining pastry. Brush the top with eggwash and bake on the bottom shelf of the oven for about 60-90 minutes, until pastry is cooked and golden.
-
Remove from oven and leave to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
-
Enjoy!
