Rappie Pie | Traditional Casserole From Nova Scotia, Canada | TasteAtlas

Rappie pie

(Rapure pie, Râpure)

This Acadian layered casserole from Nova Scotia consists of grated potatoes interspersed with layers of pork fat and either meat (ground beef, pork, or chicken) or seafood (clams,scallops). The pie is then baked until it develops a golden brown color.


It is usually garnished with butter or molasses before serving. Interestingly, the pie is derived from the phrase pâte à la râpure, meaning grated pie, referring to its key ingredient, grated potatoes.
