Festival of the Pie

We have been LOVING our kmart piemaker this winter and have discovered the BEST vegan plant based pie fillings from our 3 ranges. It couldn’t be easier! Each pouch of product makes 4 perfect little plant based pies in 9 minutes. We use Coles brand pastry with shortcrust on the bottom and puff on the top because their pastry just happens to be vegan!

 


Veglicious Cassoulet Pies

Ingredients:

1 pouch Cassoulet

1 sheet Coles shortcrust Pastry

1 sheet Coles Puff Pastry

Method:

First pour Cassoulet into a sieve over a bowl to drain excess fluid for 5 mins while you preheat the piemaker and cut out the 4 pastry rounds of each pastry. Then place shortcrust pastry in bottom and divide cassoulet evenly between 4 pies – it needs to be quite full but try and keep away from the edges. Pop the lid on and close to cook for 9 mins. AMAZING!! EVERYONE loves these pies!

 

Potato, Mushroom & Kale Ragout Pies

Ingredients:

1 pouch Potato Ragout

1 teaspoon Massel Chikn stock powder (or vegan stock equivalent)

1 sheet Coles shortcrust Pastry

1 sheet Coles Puff Pastry

Method:

Pour Ragout into a sieve over a bowl to drain excess fluid for 5 mins while you preheat the piemaker and cut out the 4 pastry rounds of each pastry. Once drained, then stir one teaspoon of stock powder through the ragout. Then place shortcrust pastry in bottom and divide Ragout evenly between 4 pies – it needs to be quite full but try and keep away from the edges. Pop the lid on and close to cook for 9 mins. These pies are super filling and great served as a meal with broccolini, sweet potato mash and gravy.

Then place shortcrust pastry in bottom and divide Coconut Veg Dahl evenly between 4 pies – it needs to be quite full but try and keep away from the edges. Pop the lid on and close to cook for 9 mins. SUPER TASTY! The kids especially love these pies, my daughter usually requests these for an after school snack.
