Best Meat Pie Recipes

This recipe is a family favorite. It can be a main meal, a snack, or a party appetizer depending on your preference and the size you make them. There are many recipes out there for the dough and the stuffing, but this is my favorite. You may find the addition of tahini, pomegranate molasses, and labneh (strained Greek yogurt) a bit strange, but they do transform the taste of the meat and take it to the next level. Still, they are entirely optional. You can knead the dough in the food processor or by hand. I like doing it by hand especially when I am having a bad day. It is a great way to vent anger or frustration. You can punch the dough, slam it against the table, get it all out without anyone getting hurt… It is even good for the dough. The trick in keeping these pies from opening up during baking is to wet the edges of the dough with a little water before shaping them; that will seal the dough together and prevent it from opening once baked.
