I SPY A PIE…IT’S SAVOURY & IT’S FOR IVY!

“Men may come and men may go…..but Pie goes on for ever.”
George Augustus Sala
savoury+pieAll savoury pie roads lead to Ivy’s @ Kopiaste this September. There’s a savoury pie food event at the Greek gals place & it’s been on my mind the whole month.
savoury+pie3savory piesWith the weather getting cooler here, pie times are beckoning. Have a few bookmarked pies on my list, but with September quickly disappearing before my eyes, I’d better send these little rustic savoury galettes Ivy’s way. Made mini galettes with left-over home-made pizza dough from here. I flavoured the basic pizza dough with chili flakes, Italian seasoning & garlic powder (loads of it). Got the idea from Pschygrad‘s Savoury Mini-Galettes & decided to use whatever I had left-over in my fridge. You see, with blogging comes a load of delicious left-overs!!
savoury+pie2Made these rustic creatures with a filling of a little pizza sauce from Christine Cushing’s yummy jar of hand-made sauce that I won as a prize. It came all the way from Canada & I’m trying to make the most of it!! Topped it off with blanched spinach (squeezed out), an assortment of grated cheddar & cottage-cheese, slices of tomato, sweetcorn, & sauteed mushrooms.savoury+pie4Rolled out the pizza dough thin & piled on the filling in the centre, dampened the edges with a little water, folded it over in pleats, left a bit open on top, added a dollop of sour cream & onion cheese spread. savoury+pie1Baked at 180 degrees C for about 25-30 minutes till the pastry got nice & crisp & golden…Nice change from the pizza. Top with fresh basil & serve warm or at room temperature. I think these would taste yum with grilled chicken too!2008 09 212
You may be interested in another galette I made some time ago… Savoury Spinach Tomato & Cheese Galette. That was yummy too!!

About me: I am a freelance food writer, recipe developer and photographer. Food is my passion - baking, cooking, developing recipes, making recipes healthier, using fresh seasonal produce and local products, keeping a check on my carbon footprint and being a responsible foodie! I enjoy food styling, food photography, recipe development and product reviews. I express this through my food photographs which I style and the recipes I blog. My strength lies in 'Doing Food From Scratch'; it must taste as good as it looks, and be healthy too. Baking in India, often my biggest challenge is the non-availability of baking ingredients, and this has now become a platform to get creative on. I enjoy cooking immensely as well.

    The best way to peek into that pie, Deeba, is through chomping.

    They are quite fetching. Would make an ideal light sup.

    Do you know, I’ve never made a galette! Not sure why as they look just like the kind of baking I like to do – kinda rustic 🙂 Love the used of leftovers!

Thank you so much for stopping by. I'd love to hear from you.
