• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh mint

1. Preheat the oven to 400u0b0F. Line 2 baking pans with parchment paper.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Saute onion and garlic 2-3 mins until tender. Add ground lamb. Brown well 4-5 mins, breaking up lumps with the back of a spoon as it cooks. Transfer to a large bowl to cool.
3. Add cheese, spinach, mint and lemon peel to lamb mixture. Season to taste and mix well.
4. Cut corners from pastry sheets with a sharp knife to form large rounds. Discard corners. Divide spinach mixture among rounds, leaving a 1 1/2 inch border. Beat 1 of the eggs and brush on border. Fold edges around filling, leaving the center open.
5. Pleat pastry over filling to seal. Brush pastry with remaining beaten egg. Place pies on prepared pans.
6. Bake 15 mins. Remove from oven. Carefully crack an egg into the center of each pie, making sure yolks do not break. Bake pies a further 10 mins until egg is just set and pastry is golden. Serve with arugula and cherry tomatoes.
