INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE FILLING 1. Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 4/180 °C/350 °F. 2. To make the crust, combine the vermicelli with the remaining crust ingredients. 3. Press into a 25cm (10 in) spring-form cake tin. 4. To make the filling, cook the minced beef, chorizo sausage and onion together. 5. Drain off the fat and then stir in the sauce, tomato puree, sugar, herbs and wine. 6. Heat through for 1-2 minutes. 7. To assemble the pie, spread the soured cream on the crust. Top with the filling and then sprinkle with the grated mozzarella. 8. Bake the pie in the oven for 20-30 minutes, until golden brown. Cool briefly before removing from the tin. 9. Serve garnished with fresh basil and oregano. 10. Variation: To make a vegetarian filling, replace the minced beef and sausage with pulses. 11. Fry the onion in 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil for 5 minutes until softened. 12. Drain a 432g (15oz) can of red kidney beans, a 432g (15oz) can of borlotti beans and a 220g (7oz) can of butter beans and stir the beans into the onion. 13. Add the sauce, tomato puree, sugar, herbs and wine and heat through. Converted by MC_Buster. NOTES : Children love this dish, perhaps because its name sounds fun!
