These were certainly tasty pies and we enjoyed them with soup and salad for dinner, but they lacked the !Wow! factor that I'm looking for to give a higher star count. Much as I enjoyed the pies - I kept wanting to add a little something more and I really noticed that when I was eating them - that's when I thought mushrooms and some fresh peppers. I would really suggest you cool the meat mixture down substantially before filling the pastry squares. The hot mixture started to sog into the puff pastry and the bottom never puffed up or crisped properly. I tried a second batch a while later (with a much cooler meat mixture) and that worked fine. This is a very adaptable recipe with the potential of interesting flavour variations. Good luck in the contest, chef!
