Curried Lentil and Vegetable Pie Recipe
This is a great lentil pie. If you don’t have an electric pie maker you can cook the pies in large muffin tins. Just place the pastry in the tins, fill with the mixture, pop on the lids and bake until golden-brown. You can also make a creamy curried vegetable version by making a curry sauce with coconut milk and curry powder and an assortment of fresh vegetables like carrots, cauliflower, peas and broccoli chopped into bite-sized pieces.
