Step 1
How to bake a puff pastry pie with minced meat and potatoes? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance. The easiest and fastest way to prepare a delicious tea pie is to use ready-made puff pastry. But it is easy to prepare at home. Pour a glass of warm water (30-40 degrees) into a bowl, add salt, sugar, beat in a chicken egg, pour in vinegar and stir until smooth.

Step 2

Step 2
Place the sifted wheat flour into the bowl with the liquid. Be sure to sift the flour, so it will be saturated with oxygen, and the baked goods will turn out more tender and airy.

Step 3

Step 3
You need to add flour in parts, stirring the dough with a spoon each time. When the dough becomes difficult to knead with a spoon, place it on the table and continue kneading with your hands, adding flour. You may need a little more or less flour, since flour has different densities. The consistency of the dough should be smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Step 4
Divide the dough into four parts, roll each of them into a thin rectangular layer, generously grease with softened butter. Place the layers of dough on top of each other and roll out with a rolling pin. Fold the layer in half and roll it out again, repeat these steps two more times. Wrap the dough in cling film and refrigerate for a couple of hours to chill.

Place mashed potatoes on one layer of dough and spread it evenly over the entire surface, not reaching the edges of the dough.
