Puff pastry pie
Description
Baking is simple and quick. For the pie you can use ground meat of your choice, but it is important that the finished cutlet is soft and juicy. If the top of the pie has browned heavily but is not yet done, cover it with foil or parchment. Overall the process is simple and even a beginner housewife can handle it. It can be served with tea or coffee.
