Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

1. 1. Chop the Onion: Finely chop the onions into small cubes.
   2. Sauté the Onion: Heat a pan with a small amount of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté them until they become translucent, about 4-5 minutes.

1. 1. Cook the Minced Meat: Add the 500g of minced meat to the onions. Fry over high heat, stirring occasionally, until the liquid from the meat evaporates and the meat begins to brown.
   2. Season the Filling: Add minced garlic, soy sauce, coriander, and black pepper to taste. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the meat is evenly coated with the seasoning.
   3. Cool the Filling: Once the meat is fully cooked and seasoned, remove it from the heat and let the filling cool completely before using it in the pie.
