Ingredients

1 1/2 cups flour, all-purpose
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons margarine
1/2 cup yogurt
Filling
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup onion
2 each garlic cloves minced
1 pound ground pork cooked, crumbled
12 ounces potatoes cooked, mashed
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sage leaves crumbled
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg ground
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

PASTRY: In mixing bowl combine flour and salt; with pastry blender, or two knives, cut in margarine until mixture resembles coarse meal.

Add yogurt and mix thoroughly.

Form dough into 2 equal balls; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

In small nonstick skillet heat oil over medium-high heat; add onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until onion is golden.

Transfer to large bowl and add remaining ingredients for filling; stir to combine.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Roll each ball of dough between 2 sheets of wax paper, forming two 9-inch circles; fit one circle into an 8 inch pie pan and add filling.

Place second circle over filling and fold edges under.

If desired, flute edges. Gently pierce dough to allow steam to escape; brush pastry with beaten egg and bake until top crust is golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

Pitkin County Pork Chops

Pretty darn easy and tasty. I had all ingredients on hand and didn't have to worry about a trip to the store. I didn't use any cayenne because we have small children, but it still came out great. The sauce was tasty over rice!
