Meat Pie Recipe an Australian Icon Dish
Growing up in Australia whether it was half time at the football or lunch time at school many of us Aussies would end up with a hot meat pie in our hands.
On a cold winters day that meat pie would not last too long!
I vividly remember my Dad stopping every time we went past this one famous bakery on the Pacific Hwy just north of Sydney just to get their version of the famous Meat pie......
It was delicious!
Being such a famous snack here in Australia, creating a gourmet version of this traditional treat was the next logical step.
ENJOY!
