Vegan Nigerian Curried Pie
At home, we grew up loving this pie and it was one of the first recipes we ever veganized.
You’ll love it, we promise!
Preparation time: 90 mins
Difficulty: Medium
Extra Tips
Instead of a large pie, you can also make Curried Pocket pies (think Sambousik shape but bigger) which would be easier to serve during big family meals.
