Meat pie, also known as Australia's "national dish". It is a rice ball in Japan, which is often eaten as a To go or casual meal.
I don't see it very often in Japan, but I recently found a pack of meat Hanamasa. "Chunky meat pie" directly imported from Australia's famous pie maker "Gallows".

To eat, heat in an oven at 175 ° C (347 ° F) for 15 to 20 minutes or in a microwave oven (600W) for about 2 minutes. It seems that it will be crispy and delicious if you warm it in the oven, but since it takes time, this time we will use a microwave oven + toaster to lightly bake.

When you cut the warm meat pie, the meat filling is packed inside. Most of the fillings are coarse beef, and you can fully enjoy the "feeling of eating beef" in both texture and flavor. Especially because the seasoning is simple. In addition to beef, vegetables such as onions, celery, and carrots are used.
The pie has a smooth surface and a chewy inside. It is tightly packed and has a satisfying taste, and has a good balance with the meat filling that has a strong presence. There is a lot more volume than you can imagine from the size of the appearance.
Contrary to its cute appearance, this meat pie has a wild and voluminous taste with an overseas feel. Please use it when you want to change your mood, such as breakfast, snacks, and Western dishes!
