Step 4: Assembling the Dish

    1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
    2. Roll out the prepared dough into a large sheet.

    2. Layer the meat and potato mixture evenly over the dough.
    3. Spread the sautéed vegetables on top of the meat and potatoes.
  1. Fold the overhanging dough over the filling, and use the remaining dough to cover the top of the dish completely.
  2. Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal the filling inside.

Step 5: Baking the Dish

    1. Make a few small slits in the dough to allow steam to escape.
    1. Brush the top of the dough with a little oil or melted butter for a golden crust.
    2. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 60-70 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is cooked through.
    3. Let the dish cool slightly before serving.

Cooking Tips

    • For a more flavorful dough, you can add a pinch of spices such as cumin or paprika to the flour mixture.
    • Ensure the meat is cut into small, even pieces for uniform cooking.
    • You can substitute the turkey with more chicken if desired.
  • To save time, you can prepare the dough and filling ahead of time and assemble the dish just before baking.
