Meat pie on kefir
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. You can use any type of meat for the pie. However, be sure to lightly fry the meat with potatoes before adding it to the filling; otherwise, the raw meat will simply clump together into a flat patty when baked. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
