- 2 1/2 pounds lean ground pork
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 1 bay leaf
- 3 cups water
- 4 baking potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 2 (15 ounce) packages refrigerated pie crusts
- In a large saucepan, mix together the ground pork, cloves, cinnamon, onion, salt, celery, bay leaf and water. The water will help break up the raw pork. Simmer over medium-low heat for about 3 hours, or until the water has evaporated. Remove from the heat and discard the bay leaf.
- Towards the end of the pork cooking time, place the potatoes into a separate saucepan and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and mash potatoes. When the pork is done, stir the mashed potatoes into that pan until evenly blended.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two 9 inch pie plates with bottom crusts. Spoon equal amounts of the pork filling into each crust. Cover with top crusts and flute the edges to seal.
- Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until crust is golden brown.
