In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Stir them together.
Add the cubed cold butter to the dry ingredients and rub it with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, whisk 2 eggs with 1/4 cup (60ml) of cold water until well combined.
Pour the egg and water mixture into the flour and butter mixture. Use a spoon or your hands to mix until a cohesive dough forms. Do not overmix.
Transfer the dough to a clean surface and briefly knead it until it comes together smoothly. Wrap the dough tightly with cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Do not overmix the pastry dough; mix just until combined to ensure a tender crust.
Ensure the meat filling is completely cooled before assembling the pies to prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
Poking holes in the pies before baking allows steam to escape, preventing them from bursting.
Brush with beaten egg for a beautiful golden-brown crust.
