This recipe makes about 12-15 small pies (depends on how thick your crust is).

For the bottom crust, after you have placed it in the muffin baking tray, you bake it first for 15 minutes.
Then you take it out, put in the filling and cover the top with the dough.
Make designs such as leafs with the left-over dough.
Glaze the top with egg yolk to make it prettier.
180C for about 20 minutes or until it is golden brown.
