SERVINGS: 6

CATEGORY: Main Dish

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 40 min. Bake: 20 min.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1/2 teaspoon paprika

Dash ground ginger

Dash ground allspice

1-1 & 1/4 pound favorite steak; cubed

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

3/4 cup sliced onion

2 1/2 cups diced peeled potatoes

2 cups water

PASTRY: or two ready made roll out crusts

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup shortening

3 tablespoons cold water

1 egg, lightly beaten

Directions:

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt, pepper, paprika, ginger and allspice; set aside 2 tablespoons. Add meat to bag; seal and toss to coat. In a large skillet, cook meat and onions in oil over medium-high heat until meat is no longer pink and onions are tender. Gradually stir in reserved flour mixture. Add potatoes and water; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until potatoes are crisp-tender.

Meanwhile, for pastry, in a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening. Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide pastry in half so that one ball is slightly larger than the other. On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger ball to fit a 10-in. pie plate.

Transfer pastry to pie plate.

Trim pastry even with edge of plate. Add filling. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges. Cut slits in top. Brush top with egg. Bake at 450° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve immediately. Yield: 6 servings.

This was SO yummy, perfectly seasoned, perfect sauce consistency. Everyone wanted me to definitely make this again and soon!
