    Directions
    (Filing)
  • Dice the carrots and potatoes.
  • Heat the vegetable oil and stir-fry the onion.
  • Add the chicken breast and stir till it turns white.
  • Season to taste. Add water and simmer.
  • Add the carrots and potatoes. Cook until the vegetables are soft.
  • Mix 2-4 tablespoons of flour in cold water.
  • Add the paste to the filling, mix thoroughly and set aside. The paste helps to bind the filing together.
    

    (Dough)
  • Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together. 
  • Add the margarine and mix thoroughly (bread crumbs).
  • Little at a time, add cold water. Keep mixing until you get a stiff dough. 

  • Flatten the dough on a clean and smooth surface. 
  • Cut the dough into big circles.
  • Scoop some of the filling in the center. Fold dough over filing to form a half-moon.
  • Press the edges together to seal by using the back of a fork. 
  • Place in greased pan and repeat the process for the rest.
  • When all the pies are folded, rub the whisked egg over them and perforate with a fork.
  • Bake in preheated oven (350F) until edges are golden brown. 
  • Then serve with a cold drink.
