Little pies that can be eaten warm or allowed to cool and put in your picnic basket. My children love individual pies (so do I actually). This version is #dairyfree and #vegan but you could use butter pastry, regular milk and glaze with egg if you prefer. #summerchallenge1

Steps

1

Add 350mls of boiling water to the shiitake mushrooms and set aside to soak for at least half an hour.
2

Prepare all the veg, dice the mushrooms and onions and crush the garlic.
3

In a large pan, gently fry the onions and garlic for 10 minutes in a little olive oil. Add the shiitake soaking liquid, soy sauce and tomato purée, then add in your raw mushrooms and chopped, soaked shiitake mushrooms. Cook for 15-30 mins until it starts to thicken up and is nicely cooked through.
4

Allow the mushroom mixture to cool while you prepare your cases. I used muffin trays to make my pies. Cut out a larger circle and press into the case for the base. Prick the base with a fork.
5

Fill the case with mushroom mixture, then brush the edges of a smaller circle for the lid and press the wet edges down onto the base to create your lid. Cut a slit into the lid to let the steam escape and brush all over with milk to glaze. Bake at 190 C for 20 minutes.
