This pie was wonderful - it reminded me a bit of a large uncovered samosa! I got slitghly confused about rolling out the dough though - 4" seemed very small so I rolled it out to fit a 10" fluted pan. I also only had red chilies so I just used one or else it would have been too spicy for us. Great recipe!
