Base Ingredients for the Filling:

To prepare the crust:

  1. Place flours, baking powder and salt in a bowl.

  2. Cut the cold ghee or butter into small pieces and add to flour and mix until flour resembles coarse cornmeal. Small pieces of ghee/butter should still be visible.

  3. Add cold water 1 tablespoon at a time, gently mixing after each addition, until mixture forms a dough. You may want to shape the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic film and refrigerate for an hour before kneading into your pie mould.

  4. Roll dough out on a flat surface until it reaches 12 inches in diameter and is approximately ⅛ inch thick. Place dough into a 9 inch pie plate, gently press into the pan, and pinch edges between two fingers to create crimped edges.

  5. Preheat oven to 375, then Par-bake the dough for 15 minutes.


To prepare the filling:

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  2. Sauté spinach, broccoli and shallot for about 4 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Remove from the heat and transfer into a large bowl, toss with choice of cheese and set aside to let cool.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, stock, thyme and salt. Pour over cooled vegetables and mix to combine.

  4. Pour filling in par-baked pie crust, and bake 30 minutes, or until filling is firm.

  5. Serve warm, let cool or refrigerate until cold.
