Savoury Pie

November 26, 2019

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

These pies are great to make with leftover stews or casseroles. I used ceramic ramekins to make single sized pies but you could make one large pie if you want.

They can be served for lunch or dinner with some steamed green vegetables or a side salad.

I have used leftover beef curry, leftover spicy pork and beans and freshly made chicken pie filling for my pies.
