Scotch pie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

A Scotch pie is a double-crust mutton pie originating in Scotland but also popular in England. It is baked in a round, straight-sided tin, about 8 cm in diameter and 4 cm high, and the top crust is placed about 1 cm lower than the rim to make a space for adding accompaniments such as mashed potatoes, baked beans or gravy.

Scotch pies are often served by take-away restaurants, and at outdoor events such as football matches.
