ALOO PIES

Steps:

• For the dough:
• Mix all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl until incorporated. Next, slowly add water until it forms a dough ball. Knead for a few minutes, and then roll out to golf ball-sized spheres (10 to 12). Place balls on a sheet pan and place in a warm area to proof for about 10 minutes.
• For the pie mixture:
• Boil the potatoes until soft, drain, and then place in large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and then mash and mix well.
• For the Aloo Pie:
• Take one dough ball and roll out to about a 6 to 7-inch circle. Place between 1 and 1 1/2 tablespoons of the pie mixture in the middle of the circle. Fold the dough over and pinch the edges to seal them. Take a 4 to 6-quart pot and fill it a little more than half full with vegetable oil. Place pot on medium high heat. When hot enough, but not smoking, carefully place one pie in the oil. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Serve with a side of tamarind or mango chutney.

AMISH TOMATO PIE

Steps:

• Chill pie dough for about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking sheet on the lower oven rack.
• Slice heirloom tomatoes into 1/2-inch rounds. Remove seeds with your fingers. Place 6 slices on paper towels or a clean cloth and cover with more paper towels or another clean cloth. Arrange the remaining slices on a wire rack. Cut Roma tomatoes into 1/2-inch slices, remove seeds, and arrange them on the rack as well.
• Line a deep-dish, 9-inch pie plate with dough. Place 2 layers of aluminum foil over the entire surface. Fill with pie weights or dried beans.
• Bake pie crust on the preheated baking sheet on the bottom rack. Place tomatoes on a higher rack. Reduce temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake until the bottom of the pie crust has lost its translucent raw look and the edges have just started to color, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Carefully remove the foil and the weights. Cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent them from burning. Poke the bottom of the pie crust with a fork to keep it from puffing up. Return the pie crust to the bottom rack and bake until the bottom starts to color, about 8 more minutes.
• Remove pie crust and allow to cool. Continue baking the tomatoes until they are wilted, about 40 minutes total. Remove and allow to cool. Keep the oven on.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until some of the fat has rendered, about 5 minutes. Add sliced leek. Cook until bacon is crisp and the leeks have softened and browned, about 5 more minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels and allow to cool.
• Place bacon-leek mixture, Cheddar, Fontina, mayonnaise, basil, egg, and mustard in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
• Spread 1/3 mixture on the bottom of the pie crust. Arrange 1/2 of the roasted tomatoes on top, overlapping heirlooms with Roma tomatoes. Spread another 1/3 of the mixture over the tomatoes and arrange the remaining roasted tomatoes on top. Add the last 1/3 of the mixture and gently press the fresh tomato slices on top in a decorative pattern. Arrange foil around the edges of the pie crust to protect them from burning, taking care that the foil doesn't touch the tomatoes.
• Bake until browned and bubbly on top, about 40 minutes. Cool completely before serving.

TOMATO PIE

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Lightly flour a clean work surface, and roll the pate brisee into a rectangle 1 inch larger than an 11 1/2-by-17-inch baking pan. Fit dough into the pan, trimming edges flush. Place in the refrigerator to chill.
• Remove the pastry from the refrigerator, and pierce the entire surface with a fork. Cover the bottom of the dough with tomatoes, arranged so they are touching but not overlapping. Drizzle tomatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. and bake for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut scallions into 1/4-inch slices, and combine in a small bowl with parsley, marjoram, and garlic. Scatter the scallion mixture around, but not on top of, the tomatoes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and drizzle the scallion mixture with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Rotate the baking pan one time during baking. Remove from the oven, and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
