Pumpkin and Meat Pie
Description
Tasty baked goods for the whole family. You can make a pumpkin and meat pie in any proportions. Add a little more pumpkin, onion, or ground meat, whichever you like. My filling is a mix, but you can use any. Try not to grind the pumpkin too finely using a grater; instead, chop it finely as indicated in the recipe. That way, during cooking the pumpkin won’t turn into puree, but will give the filling juiciness. The pie is truly very tasty, suitable both for family gatherings and for meeting friends. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.

Cover the filling with a second layer and seal the edges in any convenient way. Make a hole in the center for steam to escape and brush the surface with egg yolk. Bake in the oven at 190 °C for about 45 minutes. During baking, open the oven a few times and spray the walls with water from a sprayer.
