Prep time
30 mins
Ingredients
- Garlic Clove: 1 garlic clove, crushed
- Olive Oil: 1 tsp olive oil
- Onion: 1 small onion, finely sliced
- Egg: 1 egg, beaten
- Parsley: small handful parsley, finely chopped
- Butter: 25g butter, plus extra for greasing
- Plain Flour: a little plain flour, for dusting
- Mushroom: 350g mixed mushroom, sliced
- Caraway Seed: 1 tsp caraway seed
- Single Cream: 100ml single cream
- Shortcrust Pastry: 375g pack ready-rolled shortcrust pastry
Directions
- Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fry until soft. Stir in the garlic and mushrooms, season and cook for 5 mins until the mushrooms are soft. Stir in the parsley and cream. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Grease a 6-hole muffin tin with butter, then line each hole with a long thin strip of baking parchment. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and stamp out 6 x 10 cm circles. Press a circle into each hole to line. Roll out the remaining pastry (you may need to re-roll trimmings) and stamp out 6 x 8cm circles.
- Divide the mushroom mix between the pies. Brush the pastry edges with a little egg, top each with a pastry lid and carefully press the pastry edges together to seal.
- Brush with the remaining egg and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden. Allow to cool in the tin slightly before serving, or cool on a wire rack and keep in airtight containers for up to 1 day. Reheat before serving.
