Spicy Lamb Pies with Pickled Onion and Tzatziki Recipe

Makes 4

Ingredients:

1 red onion, sliced

¼ cup white-wine vinegar

500g lamb mince

2 tbsp harissa

1 tbsp chopped dill

100g feta, chopped

1/3 cup pine nuts

24 sheets filo pastry

150g butter, melted

2 cups wild rocket

store-bought tzatziki

Method:

Preheat oven to 200°C.

To make pickled onion, place onion and vinegar in a bowl. Season with sea salt and freshly ground pepper and 
toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Place mince, harissa, dill, feta and pine nuts in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper and mix until combined.

Brush a sheet of filo pastry with butter and top with another sheet of pastry. Repeat  until you have 6 layers. Do the same with remaining pastry until you have 4 stacks.

Cut out one 18cm round and one 21cm round from each piece of pastry. Place ¾ cup of lamb mixture in the centre of each 18cm round. Place 21cm round on top 
and firmly press down on 
the edges to seal pies. 
Repeat with remaining 
pastry sheets.

 Brush tops of pies with butter and bake for 20 minutes or until pastry is golden. Serve with wild rocket, pickled onion and tzatziki.
