Categories     Meat

Time 4h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 -2 lb diced stewing steak or 1 -2 lb round steak, and cut it up yourself
1/2-1 lb beef sausage (the "linked" kind)
1 large onion
beef bouillon (Oxo or similar)
1 -2 package puff pastry

Steps:

  • Put some oil or Lea& Perrins in a big pot – I prefer Lea and Perrins as it adds flavor and isn’t as fattening as oil.
  • Brown your meat hard and fast to seal in as much flavor as possible and give it loads of color.
  • This is where I add as much Oxo (made according to the packet) to keep the meat covered.
  • You could use beef stock instead – you can end up using a lot of Oxo!
  • Bring to the boil, and then simmer over a low heat for as long as you can.
  • The last time I made it was simmering for 4-5 hours.
  • Just keep topping up with your stock.
  • I like to add pepper and worcester sauce or hp sauce just to give it a bite.
  • Add your onion about 1 hour before you plan to stop cooking it – any less and it’s a little too crunchy – any more and it’s just boiled onion.
  • When just about done simmering – add cornstarch or other thickening agent – you’re aiming for really thick brown gravy.
  • Place in a pie dish and leave to cool.
  • Roll out your puff pastry in a floured surface – big enough to cover your pie with overlap on the edges – If you’re making a big pie two packs is best.
  • Bake in the oven at 200°c/400°f for about 20-30 minutes or until pastry is golden brown and puffy.

BISCUIT TOPPED STEAK PIE



Biscuit Topped Steak Pie image

I adopted this recipe and made a few changes when I prepared it. I don't care for canned mixed veggies and don't usually have frozen mixed vegetables on hand. Therefore, I chopped up a couple of carrots and microwaved in a bit of water until tender; microwaved the potato and cubed it; sauteed some chopped onion in olive oil; defrosted some corn and peas; and stirred all of this together with a jar of beef gravy. My steak was round steak that I had slow cooked in the oven with beef broth after seasoning with Montreal steak seasoning. My husband thought that this was a winner, and I will surely repeat it again with leftover roast beef and steak. The comments of the original chef are as follows: "I found this in a cookbook of mine and made a few changes to suit my tastes better. It's a great way to use up leftover steak. Or you can change the meat and/or gravy and veggies to suit whatever meat you have leftover. I hope you'll enjoy it, too!"

Tips:

  • If you don't have any biscuit mix, you can use a package of refrigerated biscuits, rolled out and cut into rounds.
