Instructions
- Take all the dry ingredients of pie crust and sieve them for 2-3 times. Cut butter in small cubes and start mixing it in the dry ingredients to make a flaky crust.
- Make sure that the butter is all chilled as that will melt with the heat of your fingers while kneading the dough and it will provide the crust a flaky texture. Keep adding cold water to prepare a light dough.
- Once done, brush some olive oil and cover it in cling film. Keep it in refrigerator for 30 minutes. Crust dough is ready!
- Now, heat some butter in another pan. Add garlic chops and fry for few seconds. Add all purpose flour. Keep frying it till golden brown. Now add milk over it and stir till all the lumps are removed. Add spinach and corn.
- Add salt and herbs. Let it simmer for 5 mins till the mixture becomes thick. Once done, switch off the gas and keep it in a bowl. Filling is ready!
- Keep oven on pre-heat mode. Take out the dough and start rolling it. Once done, start arranging it on pie baking mold.
- Make sure to arrange it properly with fingers especially on the sides, so that desired designs are formed. (Video shared below) Now once it is done, bake it for 15 mins in oven at 180 degrees.
