  This is an excellent pie. It was very easy to prepare and went down a treat.

  I was surprised how tasty this was. It was simple to make too. A hit even with my 7 year old...One I will make again

  Took ages for me to make this (maybe lack of preperation was to blame). I was so fed up with it by the time I got it in the oven, I used the leftover pastry to spell out 'worst pie ever' on the top.

  I travelled to south america and empanadas were often consumed. Although not a typical filling of Mexican and/or south american cuisine, the actual empanada recipe really does it justice! I thought it tased really good and was difficult to have just one slice of. A good way to get the family to have tuna too! they all thoroughly enjoyed it. We had it with a side of home made mushy peas - for some reason it went really well

  Was nice but the smoked paprika is rather hot for my smaller children so I'd suggest if you're making it for kids too, reduce that by about half.

  Maybe it's me... but although this pie is fairly tasty, I'm a bit disappointed with the end result. Use this website all the time and, in all honesty, have found more simple recipes that are a lot more delicious.

  Can't believe more people have not tried this, it's so tasty. Just takes a little long.

  It takes a little while to do the first part, but it's really worth it.
