Steps

1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Unroll and fit 1 pie crust into a 9” pie dish.

Peel and chop potatoes. To a medium pot, add potatoes and enough water to cover by 2”. Boil 20 minutes, then drain. Place cooked potatoes in a large bowl and set aside.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a 12” skillet over medium. Add pork and cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through. Add pork to large bowl with potatoes.
4
To large bowl with pork and potatoes, add salt, pepper, cinnamon, cloves and water. Mix together until combined. Spoon filling into prepared pie dish.
