Brush the shapes with a little beaten egg before pressing them lightly in place . 8 .

Bake the pie for 15 minutes , then reduce the oven temperature to 200˚C and bake for a further 15 to 20 minutes , or until the pastry is risen and golden brown . Serve the pie hot with steamed organic vegetables .
