Ingredients
  

For the Meat Filling:

  • 1.5 pounds 680g ground beef or lamb
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup 120ml water

For the Topping:

  • 4 large eggs separated
  • 1 cup 240ml heavy cream
  • 1 cup 100g shredded hard cheese (e.g., Parmesan or cheddar)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Meat Filling:

  • In a large oven-safe skillet or cast-iron pan, brown the ground meat over medium heat until fully cooked.
  • Drain any excess fat.
  • Add salt, and water to the meat. Stir to combine.
  • Let the mixture simmer over low heat for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally. If the mixture becomes too dry, add an additional ½ cup (120ml) of water.

Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Prepare the Topping:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the egg yolks, being careful not to deflate the mixture.

Assemble the Pie:

  • Once the meat filling has finished simmering, remove it from the heat.
  • Slowly whisk a small amount of the meat mixture into the egg yolk mixture to temper the eggs, then stir the tempered yolks back into the meat mixture.
  • Spread the egg mixture evenly over the top of the meat filling.
  • Pour the heavy cream over the egg topping, allowing it to seep into the mixture.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top.

Bake:

  • Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 8 minutes.
  • After baking, switch the oven to the broil setting and broil for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

Serve:

  • Remove the pie from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
  • Slice into portions and serve warm.
