I drank more coffee (you know, to celebrate) aaaaaand now we can finally get back to the low carb Tourtiere recipe that’s been over one year in the making. If you’ve never had a Tourtiere it’s a meat pie typically made with ground pork, mashed potatoes or ritz crackers for filler, and fragrant herbs and spices like sage, allspice, cloves, etc.
Tourtiere is the French name for meat pie that is served in Quebec, Canada and is usually made from minced meat. Meat pie is a pie that consists of thick cuts of meat or mince cooked in a gravy sauce with onions and mushrooms.
Visually impressive, relatively affordable, and best served at room temperature, tourtière doesn't require any precise timing. Make crust: Place flour, frozen butter, and salt into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse on and off until butter breaks down to pea size, about 30 seconds. Stir together cold water and vinegar; drizzle over flour mixture.
Meat pie is a pie that consists of thick cuts of meat or mince cooked in a gravy sauce with onions and mushrooms. Meat pies from countries like England, New Zealand or Australia are usually more juicy and full of gravy whereas the tourtiere isn't.
