  1. Refer to short crust pastry recipe in the EDC.

    When there is 15 min left on the rice time, place Varoma dish on top of bowl (if the Varoma is too full for the lid to fit securely, place something heavy on top to hold the lid down until the volume decreases).

    Delicious recipe! I also added roast pumpkin and omitted the pastry. I will definitely be making this again.

    This is yummy. I did blind baked the base of the pastry, and brushed the top with egg. I also only minced  it all together for seconds not minutes as I think it would have turned into mush. Kids had no idea they were eating spinich - Thanks  tmrc_emoticons.D

    This is awesome. I made it tonight as one large pie and added a bit of roast pumpkin and it went down very well with my whole family. Thanks for sharing your recipe tmrc_emoticons.)
