HOW TO MAKE NIGERIAN MEAT PIE | BEST RECIPE | TOSIN ALABI

[@TosinAlabi]

This recipe is for oven BAKE only at 350f/180c All ingredients used and exact oven temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit are stated in the description box beneath the video. Please READ IT. Also It cannot be fried. You cannot use a microwave. Please Oven bake only. Also when I mentioned too much onions making it “too Nigerian” , I actually meant so it doesn’t taste too savoury instead it should have a balance of sweet and savoury since it’s a pastry.

Where can I get the minced meat?

[@jayram1405]

Thank you kindly 4 this recipe. I have a Testimony ok. 2 weeks ago I attended a Baby Shower at Church. A Nigerian lady made a whole platter of savouries and the meat pies was wala 4 me. I really enjoyed it very much so. So I nicely asked her 4 the recipe and she told me straight 2 my face NO. She is gonna make and sell it. So I had no choice but to just agree. As it stands God had a choice and He said don't worry my child I will get the recipe to you and so He led me 2 your channel. Praise the LORD. What Christian people from the Church can't help me with, God can. I will definitely try it out soon. I just love the dough. I never ate a pie so dry and tightly packed. Thanks again. To God be the Glory.

[@wespeakforthetrees]

As an atheist, I can't relate to all that stuff about god. But these are great pies, I will make them and give thanks to the animals and plants that made it all possible. I will give thanks to the author of this video, and finally thanks to myself for trying something new! Have a good life, and without trying to be cynical, God bless you.

[@rosemaryukale5478]

​@@wespeakforthetreesit's so good you still have the attitude of thanksgiving. I would just want you to think of how these animals came to being. Forget the animals, how did you even come about and please don't go to the evolution theory. Some mighty power mist be responsible for these all, while the animals deserve your thanks, they are not wise enough to receive it, perhaps, give thanks to something or Someone with understanding and that has the ability to give understanding.

She just started baking and cooking for the family along with my other children all between 9 and 12. I was looking into meals from her heritage and found you! I'm so glad I did. I think this meal will be a good introduction, seems like a lot of the same ingredients in a different way. I personally can't wait to try the okra soup! She's excited to try it! Thank you!

[@xXNiishaeCandieXx]

Its amazing how far the culture spreads. Jamaican hot patty is the direct derivative of this masterpiece!

Not at all. Both pies are a derivative of the English Cornish pasty, the Nigerian meat pie more so.

[@marwairfan5038]

This recipe was so easy to make, and the result was better than I expected. It's super easy for a 12 year old like me to make(when supervised by an adult), and everybody in my family fell in love with it. I had a different kind of butter, which I used, so the pie was baked in half the time. Overall, this recipe is amazing, and I love it. Keep up the good work! P.S. I love your accent!

[@prempremglamourz1]

[@generalliz]

I tried this tonight and it turned out so much better than I expected! I didn’t have butter, so I used margarine and it still worked great. I’m sure with butter tastes better, but even so it tasted delicious and was so flakey and nice! I made a half batch of the filling with beef and a half batch with shredded chicken and both turned out very well. The chicken was a little dry so I put some chicken stock in to help it be juicier. I will definitely make this again. My husband was super excited I made these :) Thanks for your helpful video! Just what I needed!!
