Filling

Method

Filling Preparation

1

Cook the Beef

In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, stirring frequently, about 5-7 minutes.

2

Add Vegetables

Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and diced bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.

3

Season the Filling

Sprinkle in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for another 2 minutes.

4

Add Cheese

Remove the skillet from heat and mix in the shredded cheese until melted and evenly distributed.

Crust Preparation

5

Make the Dough

In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Add the cold cubed butter and mix with a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

6

Add Water

Gradually add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Assembly and Baking

7

Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

8

Roll Out the Dough

On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to fit your pie dish. Place the dough in the dish and trim the edges.

9

Fill the Crust

Spoon the beef filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.

10

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

11

Cool and Serve

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
