Easy Tuna and Green Onion Pie

Easy Tuna and Green Onion Pie

This pie can be wonderfully personalized with various fillings. While the original recipe includes green onions and boiled eggs, feel free to experiment with ingredients like meat, cheese, spinach, or cabbage.

The dough is my favorite part; it's quick to make, requires no rolling, and you simply pour it into the tray. The result is a tender, soft, and delicious pie.

The dough should have a consistency similar to thick cream.

Step 8

Line a baking tray with baking paper - mine is 28 cm in diameter, but as it's silicone, I didn't use any paper.

Pour half of the dough into the tray and even it out with a spoon.

Pour the remaining dough over the filling, smoothing it out evenly.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180 C degrees for 35-40 minutes.

Step 11

Initially, I was worried as the dough cracked slightly and the camera didn't capture it well - just what you see here.

However, once the pie cooled, the cracks were no issue; it sliced perfectly.
