Mince pie is a Kiwi classic, and this recipe allows you to use either mince or shredded roast beef. If using leftover shredded beef, mix it in to the vegetable and sauce mixture before topping the pie with the pastry as it will only need to be heated through. A sprinkle of cheese will easily turn it into the family-favourite mince and cheese pie.
