Cupcake Tin Pork Pies Recipe

Ingredients

  • 3/4 pound ground pork (could use ground beef, turkey or chicken )
  • 1 medium onion, peeled and minced
  • 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage (I use almost 2 tbsp.) **OR sub in an Italian herb blend. I find rosemary, basil, oregano, thyme, marjoram, fennel all work well and in combination
  • 1/2 cup bread crumbs (fresh, plain, Italian...whatever you like)
  • 2 (9-inch) discs prerolled, refrigerated pie dough (puff pastry works great too)
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • ~~~~
  • Options:
  • ~ I have peeled and grated one apple and added it to the filling mix with good results. I prefer a granny smith or a fuj, but use what you like if you go this route.
  • ~ Saute diced jalapenos, poblanos or bell peppers with the onion and garlic and add to the meat mixture.
  • ~ pepperoncini (chopped) and feta cheese crumbles work deliciously too and adds a different flavor level.
  • ~ Saute chopped mushrooms with the onions and garlic.
  • ~ Adding 2-4 tbsp. of cream to the meat mix will make for a moister filling.
  • ~ Chopped olives
  • ~ toasted pine nuts
