Directions

Preheat oven to 375øF. Melt butter in fry pan, add onion and cook until limp. Stir in garlic and wine. Bring to boil and cook, stirring until most of the liquid is evaporated. Combine onion mixture with turkey, veal (or pork), ham, crumbs, parsley, egg, salt, thyme, mustard, allspice and pepper. Set aside. Prepare pastry. Roll out larger portion on a lightly-floured board; fit into a 10" spring form pan. Trim edge so pastry overhangs ½ inch. Pat meat mixture evenly into crust. Roll out remaining pastry and place over filling. Moisten edges and flute together to seal.

Cut a small vent in center. Brush evenly with egg white/water mixture.

Bake on lowest rack for approximately 45 minutes or until well browned. To serve, cool to room temperature or chill and remove sides of pan. Serves 8 ~ 10 Typed in MMFormat by cjhartlin@...
