Steak Pie With Cheese Crust


1. Preheat oven to 375 F degrees.

3. Reserve 2 teaspoons of the excess flour.

4. Heat the fat or oil and just soften the onions and carrots in it but do not let them color.

5. Remove them and put them in a flameproof dish.

6. In the same fat quickly brown the meat all over and add it to the vegetables.

7. Add the herbs and spices to the pan juices, together with the reserved seasoned flour.

8. Mix well to absorb the fat, then add the stock and mix well until it boils and becomes smooth.

9. Pour the thickened stock over the meat and vegetables, bring back to the boil then cover and put into the oven for 1-1½ hours.

10. Meanwhile, make the crust by putting the flour and salt into a bowl, then rubbing in the butter until it is like coarse breadcrumbs.

11. Add the cheese and mix well.

12. When the meat is cooked, allow to cool slightly, then sprinkle the pastry mix evenly over the meat and bake for about 30 minutes or until it is golden and cooked.
