About this dish

A pie is a baked dish which is usually made of a pastry dough casing that contains a filling of various sweet or savoury ingredients. Sweet pies may be filled with fruit (as in an apple pie), nuts (pecan pie), fruit preserves (jam tart), brown sugar (tarte au sucre), sweetened vegetables (rhubarb pie), or with thicker fillings based on eggs and dairy (as in custard pie and cream pie). Savoury pies may be filled with meat (as in a steak pie or a bacon and egg pie), eggs and cheese (such as quiches or British flans), or a mixture of meat and vegetables (pot pie or Corned beef pie). Pies can be made from two pieces of pastry dough, known as a base and a top (also known as a two-crust or double crust) or just a top (also known as a top-crust), or just a base (also known as a single-crust or bottom-crust). Common pastry used include Shortcrust pastry, Puff pastry and Filo.
