Make the pastry. Add the butter to flour in a bowl and rub in until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add a tsp of black pepper then add the water and mix until the dough comes together to form a ball.
Roll out onto a floured surface, about 1 cm thick and that is larger than the pie dish. Preheat the oven 200°c fan/210°c/Gas 7/ 400℉
Spoon the meat mixture in your pie dish and cover with the pastry. Make a hole with a knife in the middle so the steam can escape. Crimp the edges with a fork and decorate with any leftover pastry trimmings. Brush the top with the beaten egg or milk.
