Meatpie is a savory pastry dish enjoyed in various cuisines worldwide, with notable origins in British, African, and Australian traditions. Typically, it consists of a flaky or crumbly outer crust filled with seasoned minced meat, such as beef, pork, or chicken, often combined with onions, carrots, potatoes, and spices. Depending on the recipe, some versions might include gravy or other rich sauces within the filling. While meatpies provide protein, iron, and essential nutrients from the meat and vegetables, their healthiness depends on preparation methods. Homemade versions can offer wholesome, balanced ingredients, while store-bought or fried varieties might include higher amounts of saturated fats, sodium, and preservatives. Pairing a meatpie with fresh salads or vegetable sides can make it part of a nutritious meal. Its warmth and portability make it a favorite comfort food and street fare across generations and cultures.
