- Put some flour down on a flat surface and roll out the dough. You don’t want it to be too thick or thin. Too thin and it will tear while folding the pies over. Too thick and there will be too much crust to filling ratio. Work with it and you’ll know when it’s right.
- Pick something circular and place it on the dough to trace around. I use one of my kid sized plates. It’s maybe 7-8” across. Now you’re ready to fill the crust circle with filling.
- Place meet filling in a crescent shape inside the crust circle. Careful not to get it around the edges or the oils will make it hard for edges to seal.
