A fixture of Australian footy matches and birthday parties alike, the party pie packs slow-cooked beef mince and a rich sauce into a flaky pastry shell, baked in the oven or air fryer. Palm-sized and portable, they're built for one-handed eating.
Brown the beef mince with the onion and garlic, then stir in the tomato paste, soy sauce and beef stock. Mix the flour with a little water and stir it into the sauce, season with salt and pepper and simmer for 20 minutes until thick.
Spread the finished filling on a wide plate and chill it in the fridge for 15 minutes until completely cool.
Line mini pie tins with the puff pastry and fill with the cooled filling. Cover with another layer of pastry, crimp the edges shut with a fork and brush with beaten egg.
Arrange the pies with space between them in a preheated air fryer basket and cook at 200°C for 12 minutes. If you don't have an air fryer, bake them in an oven preheated to 200°C for 20 minutes instead.
Make sure the filling is completely cool before filling the pastry; hot filling softens the dough and splits the base. Don't crowd the pies in the air fryer basket — leave space for air to circulate or the bottoms stay raw. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), egg and dairy (butter in the pastry).
Swapping the tomato paste for a little barbecue sauce gives the filling a sweeter, smokier edge; reduce the salt by a pinch to keep the balance.
Admin DadaGastro · verified in test kitchenSoya sosu yoktu, yerine bir tatlı kaşığı balzamik sirke kullandım. Tat beklediğimden daha ekşimsi oldu ama ailem yine de sevdi, bir dahaki sefere yine böyle deneyeceğim.
Airfryer'da 12 dakika yazıyordu ama benim modelim daha güçlü galiba, 9 dakikada üstleri koyulaşmıştı ve neredeyse yanacaktı. 10 dakikadan sonra kontrol etmenizi öneririm, herkesin airfryer'ı aynı hızda ısınmıyor çünkü.
Maç günü için yaptım, misafirler mini turtaları çok sevdi, airfryer de gerçekten pratikti.
