• 80g of lard (chopped into cubes)
• 300g pork mince
• 1 JAZZ™ apple (chopped)
• 1 tsp of dried thyme

Method
Preheat oven to 180°C
In a mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, and lard and mix until combined.
Next add in the water and knead until you form a dough. Once done, cover and leave to one side until needed.
In a separate bowl, add your pork mince, JAZZ™ apple, salt, pepper and thyme, and mix until well combined.
Take your pastry and roll out to about 3mm thick. Cut into 12 circles use the rim of a mug.
Add a generous amount of JAZZ™ apple pork filling into the base of six of the circles but don’t over fill. Next, top the pastry with the remaining six circles and seal around the edges using your fingers.
Brush the top of each pork pie with egg wash and place in the oven for about 40 to 45 minutes at 180 until golden brown.
Serve on its own as a quick snack or for lunch with a healthy salad.
