As a proud Kiwi, I love my lamb and a good pie! And i think lamb birria is one of the best lamb dishes. So, I thought I would make a lamb birria pie using cornmeal in the pastry to give you a corn taco taste. Here's how I made it.

Ingredients

  • 1kg (2.2 lbs) lamb shanks
  • 3 dried Ancho chillies, seeds removed and cut
  • 2 dried Guajillo chillies, seeds removed and cut
  • 1 dried chipotle chilli
  • 2 plum tomatoes
  • 2 white onions, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tbsp peanut oil
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 4 peppercorns
  • 1 whole clove
  • ½ tsp cumin seeds
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • 25ml (1 oz) apple cider vinegar
  • 250ml (8.5 fl oz) chicken stock
  • 250g (2 cups) bread flour
  • 130g (1 cup) stone-ground cornmeal
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp sugar
  • 200g (7 oz) lard
  • 200g (7 oz) grated mozzarella cheese
