Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Ground sausage
- 2 sheets Pre-made pie crust
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 120 grams Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 120 milliliters Heavy cream
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
In a skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the ground sausage to the skillet and cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small crumbles, about 6-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and the cooked sausage mixture into the egg mixture. Mix thoroughly.
Lay one sheet of the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently to cover the bottom and sides.
Pour the sausage mixture evenly into the pie crust.
Cover the pie with the second pie crust sheet. Trim any overhanging edges and crimp the edges together to seal. Make a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
Remove from the oven and let the sausage pie cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
