Shopping Lists: NATCHITOCHES MEAT "POT" PIE

Natchitoches (pronounced NACK-uh-dish) is famous for these meat pies and they have been sold on the street and at various public events for many years. It is one of the official state foods of Louisiana. You may have seen similar recipes for Jamaican Meat Pies or Empanadas. They are all good, the difference is in the meat mixture! The only real change I made to standard Louisiana recipe is that I added a couple of garlic cloves and cut back on the salt and pepper in exchange for Cajun seasoning. 1 lb. lean ground beef 1 lb. ground pork 1 bunch green onions med. Sweet onion green bell pepper 4 garlic cloves flour Cajun seasoning black pepper crushed red pepper beef broth cooking sherry Worcestershire sauce hot sauce 1 pkg. frozen puff pastry 1 lg. egg sea salt
