FAVORITE FRENCH CANADIAN MEAT PIE
I'm a seventh-generation French Canadian, and my ancestors started the tradition of serving this meat pie on Christmas Eve. One year I didn't make it, and my daughter and I felt something was missing. The savory pie goes well with salad and fresh rolls for a lighter meal, and it's good served in small portions with turkey and all the trimmings, too.

CHRISTMAS EVE MEAT PIE
When this pie is baking, my daughter says that the house smells like Christmas. This recipe evolved over the years and is served as part of our family's Christmas Eve celebration. It's a soul-satisfying dinner on a cold winter day.-Michele Bouchard, Kansas City, Missouri

Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Heat 1 tbsp oil and the butter in a frying pan, then add the onion and fry for 5 mins until softened. Cool slightly. Tip the sausagemeat, lemon zest, breadcrumbs, apricots, chestnuts and thyme into a bowl. Add the onion and cranberries, and mix everything together with your hands, adding plenty of pepper and a little salt.
- Cut each chicken breast into three fillets lengthwise and season all over with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan, and fry the chicken fillets quickly until browned, about 6-8 minutes.
- Roll out two-thirds of the pastry to line a 20-23cm springform or deep loose-based tart tin. Press in half the sausage mix and spread to level. Then add the chicken pieces in one layer and cover with the rest of the sausage. Press down lightly.
- Roll out the remaining pastry. Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg and cover with the pastry lid. Pinch the edges to seal, then trim. Brush the top of the pie with egg, then roll out the trimmings to make holly leaf shapes and berries. Decorate the pie and brush again with egg.
- Set the tin on a baking sheet and bake for 50-60 mins, then cool in the tin for 15 minutes Remove and leave to cool completely. Serve with a winter salad and pickles.
CHRISTMAS EVE PORK PIE
Here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, it is a tradition for the Catholics to eat pork pie on Christmas Eve, after coming back from Christmas Eve mass. This is a cousin of the French-Canadian Tourtiere. I'm not Catholic, but I love these rich meat filled pies!

- Tip the flour, salt, and butter into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 5-10 times just to break up the butter. Add the water and process just until the mixture holds together when pressed with the fingers -- 20-30 seconds. Gather the crumbly mass into a ball, press it with into a disk, and wrap with cling film. Refrigerate for at least one hour.
- Warm the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the diced onion, and toss with a spatula to coat. Reduce the heat to "low," cover the skillet, and let the onions sweat until soft -- 5-7 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll half of the dough into a 12-inch-diameter circle, and drape it into a pie pan (my pan is 9 inches wide, 2 inches deep). Add the filling mixture, packing it down well, and smoothing the top with a spatula. Roll out the remaining dough, and use it to cover the filling. Crimp dough edges to seal them. Brush with the egg wash, and cut 4 slits in the crust to vent.
