Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C. Use an 11cm round pastry cutter to cut 4 discs from each shortcrust pastry sheet. Line 12 holes of a 1/3-cup (80ml) muffin pan with the pastry discs. Place in the fridge for 10 mins to chill.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 5 mins or until onion softens. Add the mince and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up lumps, for 5 mins or until mince changes colour. Stir in the gravy powder. Add the beef stock and cook, stirring, for 2-3 mins or until mixture boils and thickens. Remove from heat. Add the peas, rosemary and mint and stir to combine. Season. Set aside to cool.
Step 3
Line the pastry cases with baking paper and fill with pastry weights or rice. Bake for 10 mins. Remove the paper and weights or rice and bake for a further 5 mins or until golden all over.
Step 4
Spoon the lamb mixture evenly among the pastry cases. Place the egg and milk in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Place 1 puff pastry sheet on a clean work surface. Brush evenly with a little egg mixture. Top with another puff pastry sheet. Cut remaining puff pastry sheet in half. Brush one-half with a little egg and top with remaining pastry half. Brush with remaining egg. Sprinkle the pastry stacks with poppy seeds and sesame seeds. Season. Use a 7cm round pastry cutter to cut 12 discs from the pastry stacks.
Step 5
Brush the top of each pie with a little egg and top with a puff pastry disc, pressing the edges to seal.
Step 6
Bake for 25-30 mins or until the pastry is golden and puffed and filling is heated through. Serve with tomato chutney.
Recipe tip
COOK. STORE. SAVE.
Smart swap: Already have dried rosemary in the pantry? Use 1 tsp as a substitute for fresh rosemary.
Use it up: Jazz up different dishes with the leftover poppy seeds – stir 1 tbs through overnight oats, or sprinkle over a Cabbage, Apple and Poppyseed Salad.
