A delightful twist on traditional Swedish meat pies, these hand pies are perfect for a hearty meal or a convenient snack.
Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned.
Ensure the beef is evenly browned for a consistent flavor.
Add the chopped onion, parsley, allspice, dill, and nutmeg to the skillet. Stir and cook until the onion is soft.
Cooking the spices with the onion enhances their aroma and flavor.
Remove the skillet from heat and mix in the grated cheddar cheese until melted. Let the filling cool.
Cooling the filling makes it easier to handle when assembling the pies.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Using cold butter ensures a flaky texture in the crust.
Mix in the sour cream gradually until the dough comes together. Knead briefly and divide into six portions.
Avoid over-kneading to keep the dough tender.
Roll out each dough portion into a circle. Place a portion of the filling in the center, fold over, and seal the edges.
Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the pies on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown.
Rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even browning.
Serve the hand pies warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad.
Pair with a tangy sauce to complement the rich filling.
