Hello everyone, welcome to another episode of Hive Learner's Creative Sunday Initiative with George Dee.
It's been a few weeks since I last participated in the initiative, and I am glad to be back with more delicious and healthy recipes for everyone. I made a snack for today's entry and hope you all love it.
Pie is one of the most common snacks around the world, and it comes with different fillings. Fish, beef, sausage, and others, but that's not all. I have tried different fillings, and one of them doesn't seem to be common, but it's great in many ways. It doesn't cost you much money to prepare, is very easy to prepare, and I can confidently say that it's healthier.
The potato and veggie filling for your pie is quite delicious but very underrated because it doesn't have fish, beef, or other popular demands in it. I have tried it a lot of times and never get tired of it because of the taste/health benefits.
What are the ingredients needed for this yummy pie?
Flour
Potatoes
Carrot & Spring Onion
Red pepper & onion
Egg & Milk
Salt & Seasoning
Groundnut oil
Butter
Milk & Sugar
Baking powder
Let's get into the preparation of this snack.
I started by processing some of the ingredients because they aren't ready for use.
I melted the butter to make it very easy for me to use.
I grated the carrot and onion.
I blended the pepper with a hand blender.
I chopped the spring onions in pieces.
I peeled the potatoes, boiled them with a little salt, and mashed them.
I broke the egg into a container and set everything aside.
I moved on to making my dough, and this looks like the biggest task, but it's simple. You can check my video to see how it's made.
- I turned some flour into a bowl.
- I added sugar, baking powder, egg, and milk.
- I mixed everything together with my hands first and added a small quantity of water.
- I continued mixing and switched to kneading after the flour had become firm.
- I added butter and continued kneading until my dough got a very smooth texture.
I moved on to making the potato and veggie filling for the pie.
- I turned the mashed potatoes into a container.
- I added the carrot, spring onions, pepper, onions, seasoning, and salt.
- I mixed them thoroughly in a container until everything blended well together.
Let's make our pie.
- I cut a small ball from the dough and flattened it with a rolling pin on a board.
- I put some of the potato and veggie mixture on a part of the dough and folded it.
- I used a cutter to trim the edge of the pie and used a fork to press the edge.
- That would give it a nice lock and as well seal the pie to prevent the filling from pouring since I will be baking the pie manually.
- I repeated the process for the other dough and filling.
- Finally, I heated my fry pan and added a little quantity of oil. This is deep fry; I just need the dough to get fried and okay for consumption.
- I placed the pie gently in the pan, two at a time, and allowed them to fry on low heat. The heat should be as low as possible.
- I flipped them repeatedly to ensure that the heat affects every part of the dough and my pie is ready.
If you have an oven, you can just place them inside to make things a lot faster.
The pie is soft, and the filling took me to another foodie's realm. I enjoyed every bit of the pie with my family and even wished there was more.
I hope you enjoy and love this recipe; feel free to share your thoughts about it.

Wow, this looks so delicious, I can't believe I'm the only one, who hasn't tried making this before. Well, I'm gonna try it sooner or later.
Lolz, a lot of people actually haven't tried this at home but it's fine. You can give it a try and I believe you will enjoy it a lot.
I have not eaten today o George! I never chop! But it looks so good and I have not even seen till the end but I already know that I’m hungry like this ☹️. One day I will fly through phone
Why did you use so little oil and I thought frying the pie with the filling makes it more delicious?
Yeah, I actually love the mashed potatoes tasting cooked rather than fried. Frying it is cool too, they actually both taste great.
This one that you haven't eaten by this time, I need to touch down in Kaduna immediately with some of the pie.
Chef Dee at it again, always giving us hot hot without even small to taste from... haba chef 🤣🤣🤣
Meanwhile this recipe is great and you deserve a job well done I must say. 👌
Don't vex for me, I really wish I can get some across to a lot of hive members. I hope that can happen someday, thanks for the support.
Cheers to a beautiful month...
Awwwnn!! Now that's so thoughtful of you chef....infact hive is proud of you. 😊
Thank you....
This potato vagie pie looks fanimorous and I give u kudos for making such a unique recipe.
Thanks man, it's indeed fanimorous because the pie tastes quite yummy.
Cheers to a beautiful week.
This is so great. I love this. So simple to prepare.
Yeah, it's really simple and I am glad you love it. I hope you will try it someday, cheers my princess.
I am amazed at how you took pictures of each and every step of it. I am such a lazy person that if I start cooking, I forget to take pictures and if I start taking pictures, I forget the recipe. 😂🥲
But this looks very tasty I have never tested them before but they look very good we have a dish called samosa in Pakistan they look just like samosas to me. 💞✨
It is not easy taking pictures and recording while cooking so it's best to have someone do all of that for you. My wife does that and I really appreciate her patience.
It can only be you o 😁
No other hiver qualifies to make my mouth water after church service like you do.
Well done, I will try to replicate this at home
My head is actually swelling here, I am glad you love my recipe and thanks for always coming through support me.
Happy new month and have a blessed week.

This is another dimension, I would love to try your recipe one day
It's nice and I believe you will enjoy it...
This looks so good and simple, but I know it will be a disaster if I attempt.😂😂💔
You’re doing well.
I don't believe it would be a disaster, please like you are the one who cooks pretty well.
I can't wait to see you share a recipe on hive or did I miss them????
I know it will be a disaster.
I’ve shared a few but I look forward to sharing more.
It's time to explore another recipe of making pie.
I love pie whether fried or baked I'm all into it meanwhile,I buy it most of the time....
Weldone Chef @george-dee
Buying it saves you the stress of everything but I prefer making it myself. It's more satisfying that way.
I am glad you enjoyed it, thanks.
You're right though!
And I think its more hygiene to prepare it by oneself...
You're welcome
Omo dis is so nice. Lovely work man
Bravo

#dreemerforlife
This looks delicious, I'm sure it tasted delicious as well. Great recipe.
#dreemerforlife
Oh my God! You never cease to make my mouth water. I don't know if I should be happy with you for sharing this unique recipe or angry that I can only stare at the pictures while licking my lips hungrily.
Either way, you will have to look for a reliable delivery service that will ensure I get my own share of your delicacies within the blink of an eye 😜🤣🤣. Enough is enough, lol.
#Dreemerforlife.
Lolz, please don't be angry and I am glad you love the recipe. I am already working on how to deliver this to all Hive members residents 😉.
Thanks for the visit...
