It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s!
Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers.
So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe. A cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes my eye and fancy…which today is STEAK & ONION PIE.
I’m a meat and potatoes kind of gal. Throw that combination under pastry and I’m in love! This pot pie is savory, flavorful, a nice change from the typical chicken and turkey pot pies. It’s even good cold so you can throw it into a lunchbox.
I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!

STEAK & ONION PIE
[Serves 6]
1 lb. cubed beef
¼ cup flour
½ tsp. paprika
¼ cup fat
2 ¼ cup hot water
1 recipe pastry
2 tsp. salt
pepper
ginger & allspice
1 cup sliced onions
2 ½ cups diced potatoes
Dredge beef in mix of flour, salt, pepper, and spices. Brown in hot fat. Add onions. Cook until brown. Stir in water. Cover and simmer until tender about 45 minutes. Add potatoes. Simmer 10 minutes. Pour into greased pan. Cover with pastry. Cut steam vents. Bake at 450 degrees for 25 minutes.
It sounds good, but the pastry makes it veddy English. I’ve forgotten. Did you publish a cookbook? It seems everyone has.
Yeah, it does sound very much like a Shepherd’s pie, doesn’t it. I love to make homemade pot pies because I can fill them with more goodies than you can find in stores. More satisfying!
Nope, haven’t published a cookbook. Just sharing my favorite recipes with my reader friends for the fun of it! 🙂
