Little Moroccan Vegetable & Feta Pie
Roasted Aubergines, feta and lentils with a spiced tomato sauce in a seeded shortcrust pastry case dotted with caraway seed.
What we suggest...
We would suggest a Tabbouleh inspired salad. It's a traditional Lebanese salad made with bulgur wheat (also known as cracked wheat and is widely available in supermarkets and health food shops). You can vary the proportions of bulgur wheat to veggies and herbs, so just use the recipe below as a guide.
Higgidy's Tabbouleh Salad
- 225g bulgur wheat
- 50g parsley, finely chopped
- 40g mint leaves, finely chopped (no stalks)
- 6 spring onions, finely chopped (including green parts)
- 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and freshly milled black pepper
- 15cm cucumber, finely chopped
- 1 red pepper, finely chopped
- 225g cherry tomatoes, chopped into quarters
- 1 small cos or little gem lettuce, finely chopped
- Prepare the bulgur wheat according to the on pack instructions.
- Combine the prepared parsley, mint, spring onions, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper, stir into the bulgur wheat and leave to 'soak' for about 30mins.
- Combine all the remaining ingredients in a large bowl, then add the bulgur wheat mixture. Using your hands combine all the ingredients together, pile into a bowl and serve with warm Little Moroccan Vegetable and Feta Pies straight from the oven.

I love this pie. It’s my favourite, but I don’t know where to buy it any more. Sainsbury’s used to sell it, then they stopped and then they restarted. Now they’ve stopped again. Where can I get it?

I am a vegetarian with very plain tastes. I dont like all the spices and garlic in lots of veggie dishes which cover the taste of the veggies. I have to say how much I enjoyed the vegetable and feta pie which was very tasty yet not too spicy for me.

My first experience of Higgidy was the Little Moroccan Vegetable and Feta Pie that was on the ‘reduced’ shelf in Waitrose. I enjoyed it so much that I bought it at full price on my next visit. Having now tried other tasty Higgidy flavours, this Moroccan beauty still tops the list of favourites for me. I have served it with red pepper salad and aubergine slices roasted in sesame oil.

Dear Higgideers Camilla, James, Kate and Jack,
Thank you for regaling the nation with your delicious pies. There’s nothing quite like your spinach, feta and toasted pine nut pie, your balsamic onion and cheddar quiche or your Moroccan style thingy. Factory food is so bland, but yours bridges the gap between that, and good home cooking. Congratulations!

I absolutely adore Higgidy pies. I think you have created a great range of fabulous tasting pies which also look amazing.I have got so many people hooked on your pies its great as everybody is looking for an alternative to the usual high street supermarket unhealthy lack of choice that there is and i think that they are great value for money. I always look forward to new recipes you create and hope to see more in the very near future, vegetarian please. Thanks Higgidy xx
