Tips
Cheese and Onion is the best selling 'non meat' pie and in this pie we've take similar flavours, with the leek and cheddar cheese and added some potato for a little 'body'. This allows it to work great as a hand held snack style product, which is easy to eat, on the move. You can adapt this using a blend of cheeses, various types of onion, or mushroom, in a variety of pastries.
