To prepare a delicious potato and minced meat pie, we will start by ensuring we have all the necessary ingredients at hand. First, we peel the potatoes, then cut them into equal-sized cubes so they cook evenly. We place them in a pot with cold water and add a teaspoon of salt, then boil for 25 minutes or until they become soft. Once cooked, we drain the water and let the potatoes cool slightly, after which we mash them using a potato masher or a fork, making sure to achieve a fine puree.
In a large bowl, we will prepare the dough. We add sifted flour, soft butter, the potato puree, and a pinch of salt. We knead the mixture well until it becomes homogeneous and elastic, not sticking to our hands. This dough will form the base of our pie. We grease a 26 cm round cake pan, then spread the dough inside the pan, ensuring we raise a high edge to hold the filling. Once done, we cover the pan with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.
Meanwhile, we prepare the filling. We start by finely chopping the onion. Then, we remove the stems and seeds from the peppers, cutting them into small pieces, which will add a touch of color and flavor to the dish. In a skillet heated with a little oil, we sauté the onion and peppers for about 4 minutes until they become slightly soft, then remove them from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, we fry the minced meat over medium heat, stirring constantly to crumble it well. We season the meat with salt, pepper, and paprika to taste, then add the onion and pepper mixture, mixing everything very well.
Now, we return to our dough from the refrigerator. We take out the pan and pour the meat and vegetable mixture, leveling it evenly. In a separate bowl, we lightly beat the eggs, then add sour cream, milk, and broth, mixing well until we achieve a homogeneous mixture. This will be carefully poured over the meat filling.
We preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius and place the pie in the oven, allowing it to bake for about 45 minutes. It is important to check from time to time until the pie takes on a nice golden color. Once baked, it can be served warm or cold, being perfect for any occasion or family meal. This potato and minced meat pie will surely become a favorite at your table!
