(All measurements are level)
Roast Beef Pie (Three portions)
2 C-chopped cold roast beef
1 C-gravy
1 C-cold diced potatoes (cooked)
2 T-chopped onion
1 C-flour
2 t-baking powder
2 t-lard
1/8 t-salt
6 T-milk
Mix the beef, gravy, potato and onion. Place in a shallow buttered baking dish. Make a biscuit dough by cutting the lard into the flour, which has been sifted with the baking powder, and salt, and gradually adding the milk. Pat the dough into shape and arrange carefully on top of the meat. Make holes in the top to allow the steam to escape. Bake in a moderate oven twenty minutes.
