Pies are a versatile food to cook. They can be savoury or sweet, suitable for any meal or occasion, and easily customised, even a great vehicle for leftovers. Try these easy-to-cook pie recipes but don't be afraid to add your own spin!
Chicken pot pie
Packed with hearty vegetables and succulent chunks of chicken, this chicken pot pie is sure to satisfy your comfort food cravings. It can be made ahead of time, making it an excellent choice for busy weeknights.
Grape and feta pie
The juicy sweetness of the caramelised grapes and the tangy salty flavour of the feta cheese come together to form a satisfyingly delicious savoury/sweet pie.
Fish pie
This is no ordinary fish pie – a combination of smoked cod, salmon and prawn, with dill-laced bechamel sauce, topped with mashed potato and cheese. A perfect dish for a cosy night in or a special occasion.
Green curry pork pie
Indulge in a flavour of explosion with Thai green curry paste, slow-cooked pork, coconut cream and lime, wrapped in flaky light crisp short crust pastry.
Potato gem shepherd’s pie
Forget about cooking and mashing your potatoes. Here's a clever way to turn potato gems into a crowd-winning dish, with plenty of vegetables and flavours. The best part? The gems stay crunchy ontop.
Smoky trout pie and mash
This is a hearty smoked trout pie with plenty of herbs and flavours by SBS News' Janice Petersen. Garnish the pies with Geraldton wax flowers and serve with Dutch cream potato mash.
Gramma pie
Gramma is a type of squash that greatly resembles butternut pumpkin, and either can be used to make this pie. More sweet than savoury, serve with ice cream, cream or custard.
Lime mojito pie
This pie may require a bit of effort, but is definitely worth it. With a coconut rum-infused lime curd, this pie is an ode to tropical tastes. It packs a good citrus punch and looks gorgeous on the table.
Peach, cardamom and vanilla pie
Enjoy the natural sweet flavour of fresh peaches as you sink your teeth into the flaky buttery crust. For a more textured filling, cut your peaches into chunks rather than slices.
Lemon myrtle meringue pie
Try this lemon meringue pie with a twist. Lemon myrtle has a slight eucalyptus or menthol flavour and pairs beautifully with lemon like in this curd. Knead ground wattleseed into the base for a more nutty toasty flavour.
