Foolproof savoury pies

Makes 24 Preparation time 15 minutes Cooking time 30 minutes

You need:

1 tablespoon butter 2 onions, chopped 4 tins (170g each) tuna or salmon 1 teaspoon seasoning salt 2 teaspoons dried parsley or thyme 2 cups frozen vegetables (peas, carrots, corn) 2 cups mozzarella cheese, grated 1 cup flour 1½ teaspoons baking powder a pinch of salt 1 tablespoon butter 1 cup milk 4 eggs

Here’s how:

Preheat an oven to 200°C. Prepare 2 12-cup muffin tins with cooking spray. Melt the butter in a pan and gently fry the onion until soft. Add the drained fish, seasoning and herbs. Add the vegetables and stir until heated through. Set aside to cool before mixing in the cheese. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt and rub in the butter. Whisk in the milk and eggs. Divide the batter between the muffin cups – about a tablespoon each. Now divide the savoury the – about ¼ cup each. Place the tins on the middle rack of the oven and bake the muffins for 30 minutes or until golden brown. (Peek after 20 minutes and lower the temperature to 170°C if they are browning too quickly.) Pack in an airtight container, they will last 4 days if you keep them cool.
