When the bread dough has risen, roll out on a floured board to ¼ in (6mm) thickness and cut into 4 in (10cm) squares.

Place a tablespoon of filling on each square of dough and fold to form a triangle – shaped pie. Secure edges together by folding them over and pressing firmly down with fork prongs.

Place the pies on a well oiled baking tray and brush each one with oil. Bake in a hot oven, 425°F (220°C) until lightly golden.
