Meat pie

Based on Meat pie, this has been tuned to be a bit quicker and should produce less washing up! A big thanks to Gemini for this one. Not tried yet.

Ingredients for 2

• A medium sized potato, diced.
• An onion, diced.
• A medium sized carrot, diced.
• A glove of garlic, diced.
• 250ml appropriate gravy - chicken for white meat and beef for dark meat.
• Taste contrast (sweetcorn for chicken, bay leaf for beef - what do you like?).
• A big portion of meat for one person eating a roast.
• Half a pre-rolled puff pastry sheet. **

Directions

1. Microwave Vegetables:
   1. Place the diced potatoes, onions, and carrots in a microwave-safe dish with 1–2 tablespoons of water.
   2. Cover and microwave at 1000W for 4–6 minutes until they are tender.
2. Add the rest of the filling:
   1. Add Meat and Gravy: Stir the cooked meat into the vegetables, pour in the gravy, and return to the microwave for 2 minutes on high just to get the gravy boiling.
3. Cook the pastry:
   1. Assemble and Crisp: Transfer the hot filling to your pie dish, top with pastry, and use the Combination Mode (Convection 200°C + Microwave 300W) for 10–15 minutes to brown the pastry.

NB If making your own pastry, you are looking to achieve a depth of 5mm or so.
