 +====== Amzamalvinni Pie ======

 +
 +Tarvuist meat pie, named after [[Amzamiviram]] and [[Alvinni the Martyr]]. These two great figures of [[Tarvuism]] were great friends and great cooks, and together they invented the dish.
 +
 +The pie is chiefly made from rabbit, duck, raisins and vanilla, all in a pastry casing. However, the ingredients do change slightly depending on which type of Tarvuist the chef is!
 +
 +In Portugal, it is traditional to make the pie filling with pigeon, sultanas, cheese and vanilla, whereas in New Zealand, Amzamalvinni pie (known as 'Chunky Joe') is usually made with fish, raisins and vanilla.
 +
 +When Death Row prisoner, Joe 'Decision Time' Horgan, was about to be executed in Texas, 1962 for a murder of a speed figure skater, his last meal was reported to have been 2 Amzamalvinni pies, 2 coca colas and 2 cloves of garlic. 
 +
 +In 1989, some 27 years after his execution, an inquest found Horgan innocent of the crime (but guilty of another crime, that of strangling 100 foxes).
