LEFTOVER BEEF POT PIE

Steps:

• 1. fit first crust into a casserole dish. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix the Italian Seasoning package into one of the cans of gravy. In a mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients except for the cheese. Mix well...Pour into the pie crust. Sprinkle the cheese over the entire top. Top the the second pie crust and poke holes with a fork a couple of times for steam to escape. Place in oven and cook for about 30 minutes or until crust is brown. I usually baste the top with butter when it just begins to brown. It will give it a nice golden color. If I have leftover potatoes and carrots in my roast, I toss them in there too.
• 2. This is another idea that I use. When I make beef stew, if I have leftovers, I add a Tablespoon of flour to the beef stew and put it into a crust and top with cheddar cheese. That's all I do to it, because the gravy and vegetables are already in it...
• 3. You can make a Tuna pot pie by draining a large can of Albacore tuna and flaking it. Add 3 cans of cream of mushroom soup and two cans of well drained Veg-All and top with grated Parmesan cheese.

BEEF LEFTOVER POT PIE

Steps:

• 1. You will need a dutch oven or stock pot and ramekins. Prepare your garlic, mushrooms, celery, and onions. Most likely your meat is already seasoned. If you are not using left overs, salt and pepper your meat.
• 2. Put some oil in a dutch oven or stock pot over medium heat. If you are NOT using leftover meat, this is the time you would brown your meat and then remove them to cook the vegetables. You would need to add more oil to cook your vegetables. If you ARE using leftover meat, use low-med heat add onions and saute them until they are soft and translucent. Add the garlic and saute for about 2 minutes longer. You may need to lower heat when you add garlic so it doesn't burn. It will depend on your stove.
• 3. Add celery and mushrooms to the pot and continue to saute for 2 more minutes.
• 4. Add Rosemary, Thyme, and tomato paste and stir. Add some salt and pepper to the vegetable mixture. Stir and cook about 30 more seconds.
• 5. Add meat back to the pot. Pour in the dry sherry and the 3 cups of water and Better then Bouillon low sodium beef bouillon. Stir and bring to a boil
• 6. Add the brown sugar and bay leaf. If you are NOT using leftover meat, cover the pot and simmer on low for 1 hour. If you ARE using leftover meat, cover and simmer on low for about 20 minutes and adding more water and bouillon if needed.
• 7. Depending if you are using fresh meat or leftovers, add potatoes after the above time of simmering. Continue to cover and simmer on low until potatoes can be penetrated by a fork easily. Depending on how big your chunks are could be 15-30 minutes. Check often.
• 8. Add the flour (be sure to dilute it first in water) to the stew/broth. Add the frozen vegetables and turn off the burner. Stir and taste to see if you need to add any more salt or pepper or water.
• 9. Once you like the consistency and taste, cover the pot and begin to prepare your ramekins. Preheat over to 400. Roll out puff pastry and cut out the dough to fit over the ramekin. Be sure to leave enough so you can press it down into the ramekin to meet the stew/broth and enough to press on to the ramekin's edge. Once you have cut out the tops get a ladle and stir the pot. Yes this time stirring the pot is ok lol. And begin to transfer the stew/broth into the ramekins filling it close to the top.
• 10. Place puff pastry dough on top of each ramekin and carefully pressing it down to meet the stew. Pinch it to the sides of the ramekin to prevent shrinking. Then take a sharp knife and put just a couple of slits in it to release the heat. Brush the pastry lightly with the egg wash. Place on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan and place on bottom rack. It will be ready once the crust is golden brown. 15-25 minutes depending on your oven. Once it is done, let it sit for 10 min to cool down some. It will be very hot.

BEEF POT PIE

Steps:

• Procedure: Filling is made in 2 parts and then combined: the stew and the vegetables. The crust is partially baked before filling.
• The vegetables: Blanche the turnips and then the carrot chunks in rapidly boiling salted water until just tender, removing the vegetables from the water and immediately cooling them under running water to stop the cooking. Microwave the peas in a 1/2 cup of water for 20 seconds or pour some of the hot blanching water over them and then drain. Mix the vegetables together. This can also be done ahead, the same day as the pie will be served or even the night before, but don't freeze the vegetables.
• The stew: Cut beef into 1-inch chunks and dry thoroughly with a paper towel. Cut the bacon into 1-inch pieces and brown slowly in the casserole. Remove the bacon and set aside, and turn the heat to high. Brown the beef quickly in the bacon fat. Add olive oil if necessary. Remove the beef from the casserole and set aside with the bacon. Add the minced carrots, onions and celery and brown on medium high heat in the remaining fat. Remove the vegetables from the pot and add to the reserved beef and bacon. Add the clarified butter to the pot and sprinkle in the flour. Stirring constantly, brown the flour on medium high heat until it is a dark, nut brown. Return the bacon, beef and vegetables to the pot. Stir to coat them with the browned flour and cook for 1 minute on medium-high heat. Lower the heat, add the cayenne, wine, bouillon or stock, the tomato paste, the garlic and the herb bouquet tied in a cheesecloth. Stir to mix well and simmer for at least 3, preferably 4, hours, stirring occasionally. When done the meat should be very tender. Skim fat if necessary. Check for seasoning. Remove the meat from the gravy with a slotted spoon and set aside. Remove and discard the herb bouquet. Reserve the gravy in a separate container. The stew may be prepared to this point a 1 or 2 days ahead and kept refrigerated. It can also be frozen after preparation to be kept longer.
• The crust: Preheat oven to 400 degrees Process the flour, butter, shortening, and salt until mixture is like coarse cornmeal. Add the ice water and pulse processor a few times until dough begins to clump. Do not overprocess. Scrape dough onto a board, divide in half and put each half in a plastic bag. Working through the bag, quickly press the dough into a ball. Refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour. (May be frozen at this point for future use.) Roll 1 of the balls out to about 1/8-inch thick. Butter the tart pans and line with the dough. Roll the other ball of dough out and cut circular pieces about 1/8-inch larger than the individual tart pans (or 3/8-inch if using the single 9 or 10-inch pan). The circles for the top crust of the pot pie are cut larger because there will be shrinkage when it is baked. The edges can be crimped with a fork if desired. Leftover dough can be cut into decorative shapes for the top crust.
• Butter pieces of aluminum foil and line the crust in the tart pans with them. Fill the foil with dried beans or rice to a depth of about 1-inch -- this will keep the crust from puffing when it is baked empty. Place the top crust circles on a cookie sheet and prick with a fork. Bake for about 10 minutes. Crust should just start to brown. The top pieces will likely take a little less time. Remove the aluminum foil and return the beans or rice to their container. Leave the tart pan rings in place. The crust can be made up to 4 hours before the dish is assembled and served.
• Assembly: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. If you have made the stew and gravy ahead of time, warm them separately on the stove until they just begin to simmer. Add gravy back to the stew a little at a time until it is liquid enough but not too soupy. Stir well to mix. The proportion will vary according to the cut of meat used and the actual cooking time. Once you've made it a couple of times you'll know how you like it. If there is leftover gravy, keep it warm on the stove while you bake the pie. Mix the vegetables into the stew just before you assemble the pie. Spoon the filling mixture into the partially baked pie shell. It should fill it right to the top. There may be some filling mixture left over. This is not a bad thing. Bake for about 8 to10 minutes, until the crust starts to look quite brown at the edges and the filling is bubbling. Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Carefully remove rings from the pans and slide the pies onto warmed plates. If there is remaining gravy, serve on the side with the pie. Garnish with chopped parsley.
