    Classic Natchitoches Meat Pie


    Yields 28

    Ingredients
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided, plus more for frying

    ½ pound ground beef

    ½ pound ground pork

    1 teaspoon dried oregano

    ¾ teaspoon kosher salt

    ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper

    ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

    ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper

    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

    ½ cup minced yellow onion

    2 cloves garlic, minced

    ¼ cup finely chopped red bell pepper

    1 stalk celery, finely chopped

    2 Meat Pie Dough (recipe follows)

    1 large egg

    2 tablespoons water

    Instructions

    1 In a small Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add beef, pork, oregano, salt,
    red pepper, black pepper, and cayenne. Cook, stirring frequently, until meat is browned and
    crumbly, about 6 minutes. Drain any excess liquid. Sprinkle with flour, and stir to combine.

    2 In a large saucepan, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook until
    tender, about 2 minutes. Add garlic, bell pepper, and celery; cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
    Stir into meat mixture. Let cool completely.

    3 Cut Meat Pie Dough into 40 pieces. Reserve 12 pieces for another use. On a lightly floured
    surface, roll 28 pieces of dough to a 5½-inch circle, and place on a parchment-lined baking
    sheet. Refrigerate for 10 minutes. Using a 5-inch round cutter, cut rounds from each piece of
    dough. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and 2 tablespoons water.

    4 Place 2 tablespoons filling in center of each round. Lightly brush edges with egg wash. Fold
    dough over filling, and press to seal. Using a fork, crimp along edges of pie. Using a pastry
    wheel, cut along edges to further seal. Freeze pies before frying.

    5 In a large Dutch oven, pour oil to a depth of 4 inches, and heat over medium heat until a deep-
    fry thermometer registers 370°. Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels, and place a wire
    rack on top.

    6 Remove pies from freezer. Using a slotted spoon, gently place pies, 3 at a time, in hot oil. Fry
    until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from oil, and let drain on prepared pan.
