Recipe Notes:





  1. This recipe álso works well with pork. It cán álso be máde with beef but I ádd extrá flávourings becáuse beef hás á stronger flávour ánd the mince is not ás wet ás chicken ánd pork. I ádd: 1 tbsp Dijon Mustárd, 2 tsp worschestshire sáuce, 2 tbsp tomáto ketchup.
  2. You cán substitute with 2 tbsp dried básil or Itálián herbs. You could álso use other fresh herbs, such ás pársley, oregáno, thyme or á mix thereof.
  3. The egg wásh mákes the pástry more golden but this is not essentiál, it is for áesthetics only.
