1
Dust the work surface and rolling pin with flour

Roll the pastry to a thickness of about 0.5cm. Turning the pastry by 90˚ as you are rolling will help keep the pastry even

Cut circles out of the pastry with a small cutter, make sure to only cut to the size of the circumference of the pie lid
4
Roll the pastry up onto the rolling pin and carefully layer over the pie, pushing down the edges to seal
5

6
You can use the cutter to decorate the edges of the pastry by cutting out semi circles all the way around or alternatively use the cut out pieces of pastry
7
Brush the pastry with egg wash

Bake in a hot oven until golden brown and crispy
