Chilli Beef & Cheese Pie

What is it?

Minced beef, cheese and chilli sit in a spiced gravy under shortcrust pastry, with a puff lid on top. It’s a standard meat pie format, but the filling leans warmer than a plain beef version, with the cheese softening some of the chilli’s edge. Baked from frozen, it fits the familiar Mrs Mac’s pie range alongside the more straightforward beef and steak versions. The texture is what you’d expect from a frozen pie: crisp pastry outside, saucy centre inside, and a filling that holds together when cut.
