Savory pies are what I love to cook the most. Once I have the base ready, I get creative with the filling. The base I share with you today is very simple, plus it’s yeast-free and requires no waiting time. I used the Thermomix, but it can also be kneaded by hand because it really only takes 5 minutes. I used lard, but you can easily replace it with olive oil. If, like me, you are a fan of savory pies, try these as well:
