Meat Pie (Pastel de Carne) - Porto's Bake at Home Instructional Video

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grab two baking sheet trays and place them on top of each other to ensure even baking.

Lay out the meat pies on the baking sheets, leaving half an inch between each pie.

Bake the meat pies from frozen without thawing them.

While the pastries are baking, make simple syrup by combining equal parts sugar and water in a pan over medium to high heat.

Stir the mixture until it comes to a boil and the sugar is dissolved, then remove from heat.

Once the pastries are golden-brown, take them out of the oven.

Use a pastry brush to coat the hot pastries with the simple syrup evenly.

Let the pastries cool completely for about 15 minutes before enjoying.
