Extremely savoury and delicious! The amount of liquid is this fragrant pie makes lots of scrumptious gravy, so you wont need to make any extra.

  1. Would you please tell me what the measurements would be in the USA or give a link to a measurement converter? I pinned this but I can’t use it until I translate these measurements.

    • I’ve included measurements in grams and in ounces, but not cups. Im afraid we dont use those. I’ll put a link to a page with conversions when Ive set one up.
