Quck meat pie

This particular one was cooked on the occasion of no food left, no time to go to the store... scraped whatever was available.
That is:  1 pound of ground beef (organic, and it probably it matters from taste perspective), 1 can of green peas, salt, black pepper, ground cloves,  ground ginger - and no onions, though I would've added chopped onion and 1/2 can of cord with 1/ can of green peas if I had the luxury to choose my ingredients. Mix them all.
For pie crist -- 2 eggs, whatever flour was left, which was about 6 table spoons, ~ 1/2 cup of iced water. Mix and flatten in round with pin roll.
Make this dough soft but strong enough to hold on the the sides of a pot.
Yes, I used aluminum pot which is also used for making pilaf.
A medium size one.
So place the filling into the dough and cover with the dough from the sides . Your pie will be most likely not fully covered which some windows left for the filling. Which is good. It will breath, it will start producing right smell to invoke appetite at the right time.
Bake for about 18-24 minutes at about 450-500F.
