I've been looking for this recipe for years! I used to make it in Australia but since I've been here I've had no luck. The only suggestions I would make is to add more nutmeg, use a deep dish pie shell and if you put the pie shell on a cookie sheet and put it into the heated oven FIRST, then pour the mixture in you will have less spills. I almost set my smoke alarm off!

This pie is delicious! The first time I made it, I overfilled it and it spilled all over the oven despite the cookie sheet under it (my cookie sheets have a bad habit of "snapping" out of shape after being heated for a little, and this made the pie lurch to the edge and spill down under the bottom burners!). I pulled out the still half-filled pie, cooled and cleaned the oven (several hours) and then finished baking the pie. It was still so good! So anyway, this time I made only half the filling and was prepared for the lurching of the cookie sheet with extra foil. The pie just came out of the oven - a little lopsided, but once again, that's my cookie sheets. My husband and I both give this pie 5 stars - we can't wait to eat the rest tomorrow! :)
