Similar to Tourtière, this pork pie uses time-saving shortcuts to make it weeknight-friendly. No oven safe skillet? Use a pie plate instead!

Ingredients

  • 4 slices bacon, finely chopped

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 2 celery stalks, finely chopped (about 3/4 cup)

  • 450 g ground pork

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 1/2 tbsp finely chopped sage

  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves

  • 1/4 cup quick oats

  • 1 cup beef broth

  • 1/2 400-g pkg refrigerated rolls of pie crust, (1 roll) such as Pillsbury

  • grainy Dijon mustard, for serving

  • maple syrup, for serving (optional)

  • Giardiniera mixed vegetable pickles, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  • Position rack in centre of oven, then preheat to 425F.

  • Heat a large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high. Add bacon, onion and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion starts to soften, 8 to 10 min. Crumble in pork, then sprinkle in garlic, sage, cinnamon and cloves. Season with pepper. Cook, stirring, for 1 min.

  • Stir in oats and broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until oats are tender but mixture is still slightly saucy, 6 to 8 min.

  • Unroll pastry and carefully lay over pork mixture. Cut several slits into pastry. Bake until the pastry is crispy and golden brown, 10 to 12 min.

  • Slice into wedges and serve with grainy mustard, maple syrup and giardiniera.

Kitchen tip

If you don’t have an oven-proof frying pan, transfer the cooked pork and oat mixture into a deep-dish pie plate, then unroll pastry overtop. Continue with recipe.
