Time 2h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

¾ cup lard
1 cup boiling water
5 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 pounds ground pork sausage
½ pound ground pork
½ pound lean pork tenderloin, sliced into small pieces
1 onion, finely chopped
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon mixed herbs
1 pinch medium curry powder, or to taste
1 pound smoked streaky bacon
2 tablespoons milk, or as needed

Steps:

  • Heat lard in a large microwave-safe bowl until melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir in boiling water.
  • Combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and pour in lard mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until a smooth, slightly sticky ball of dough forms.
  • Dust a flat work surface with flour and knead dough for 2 minutes. Roll out 3/4 of the dough into a 1/3-inch thick circle. Press over the bottom and all the way up the sides of a 10-inch springform pan. Roll out remaining dough into a 1/3-inch thick circle for the top of the pie.
  • Freeze pie crust base and top until firm, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine ground sausage, ground pork, pork tenderloin, onion, parsley, pepper, thyme, mixed herbs, and curry powder in a large bowl. Mix into a paste.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Line the bottom and sides of the pastry crust with streaky bacon. Press in 1/2 of the pork mixture. Cover with 3 to 4 slices of streaky bacon. Press in remaining pork mixture; arrange remaining streaky bacon on top. Brush pastry rim with milk and add the top crust. Pinch the edges together to seal. Brush the top with milk and cut 2 slits in the top of the pie.
  • Bake pie in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 1 hour more.
  • Cool pie completely before removing from the pan.
