Where to find ingredients
All-purpose flour and mayonnaise are widely available in the flour and condiment aisles of most supermarkets. Egg yolks and cooking oil can be found in the dairy and cooking oil sections, respectively. For the filling, options like pre-cooked shredded chicken, ground meat, or various vegetables are readily available in the meat and produce sections of supermarkets. Specialty Brazilian or Latin markets might offer pre-seasoned fillings or specific regional ingredients, but standard options are universally accessible.
Preparation method
- In a large bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the flour
- Gradually incorporate the remaining flour, mixing with your hands until a homogeneous dough forms that does not stick
- The dough should have a slightly crumbly texture
- Line a baking dish with half of the prepared dough, covering the bottom and sides well
- Add your chosen filling over the dough base
- Cover the filling with the other half of the dough, spreading it evenly
- In a small container, mix the egg yolk with the oil
- Brush this mixture over the entire surface of the pie
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for approximately 30 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown and the crust is completely cooked
