Party Pies (Healthy)
« on: January 25, 2016, 02:41:07 am »
These are my healthy twist on the Aussie Meat pie (snack sized / party pies), with a cauliflower cheese topping which includes some extra veg and reduces the pastry.

INGREDIENTS

Pie Filling:

    15g (handful) parsley
    2 cloves garlic
    70g tomato paste
    20g butter
    100g button mushrooms, halved
    500g rump steak, cubed
    ½ tsp pepper
    70g bacon
    1 tbsp seeded mustard
    ½ tsp dried oregano
    20g grated parmesan cheese

Pie Crust

Frozen shortcrust pastry OR see my paleo pie crust recipe here: http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=16930.0

Cauliflower Cheese Topping

    180g cauliflower, chopped
    50g grated cheddar cheese
    10g parsley

METHOD

Pie Filling

    Add parsley, garlic, tomato paste and butter to TMX: 3 sec, speed 6
    Add remaining pie filling ingredients, turbo a few time until well combined and roughly chopped
    Cook: Varoma temp, 5 min, speed 2, reverse - MC off
    Then: 100°, 40 min, speed 1, reverse - MC on
    Transfer mixture to thermoserver to continue slow cooking for a few hours, this is optional, otherwise allow to cool and refrigerate until you are ready to create pies

Pie Crusts

Line a 12 hole muffin tray with shortcrust pastry (frozen is ok, defrost first) OR see my paleo pie crust recipe here: http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=16930.0

Cauliflower Cheese Topping

    Add all ingredients to TMX: 5 sec, speed 6
    Spread evenly over the top of pies, pressing down firmly

Bake party pies 30 min, 180°C

These sound fantastic. I must make them. Thanks.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
