Notes
Tip
Make sure you get sweet shortcrust pastry, I have made this pie with unsweetened pastry, but it’s just not quite right.
Tip
Recipe created by Melissa Hughes for Kidspot.
Variation
You could always make your own pastry, if time permits.
Storage
Leftovers can be kept covered in the fridge and reheated the next night at about 150°C.
