Autumn Crab Pie

AUTUMN CRAB PIE

Preparation Time:
15 min.
Cooking Time:
10 min.

Ingredients:
(Serves 4)
7 oz crab sticks
7 oz sweet potatoes
2 rolls of pie dough
3 1/2 oz grated Emmental
1 egg
3/4 oz golden raisins
3/4 oz chopped dried apricots
2 pinches five spice powder
9 oz mixed greens (mesclun)
3 1/2 tbsp salad dressing

Method:
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1cm cubes. Boil the sweet potatoes in plenty of water for 5 to 8 minutes, until they are just tender. Drain in a strainer. Cut the crab sticks into 1cm lengths and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cover a pie plate with a layer of pie dough. Arrange the sweet potato and crab pieces over the dough. Scatter with apricots and raisins. Sprinkle everything with grated Emmental. Beat the egg in a small bowl with a pinch of salt. Brush the edge of the pie dough that overlaps the pie plate with beaten egg. Cover the pie with a second layer of pie dough. Stick the two layers together by pressing with your thumb and index finger. Cut the excess dough off with scissors and turn the edge towards the inside. Brush the top of the pie with beaten egg and carve some decorative lines with a knife. Cut a few holes right through the dough to let steam escape. Bake for 25 minutes, then serve.
