Ingredients
- 2 lbs leftover beef steak
- 24 small white onions
- 6 tbsp butter
- 1/2 lb good bacon cut in small pieces
- 24 oysters optional
- Pastry enough for a 2-crust pie
- 2 cups brown sauce or beef gravy
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp cream
Instructions
- Cut the meat into small cubes.
- Brown the onions in butter, cover, and let them steam until tender but crisp.
- Fry out the bacon pieces and transfer to absorbent paper.
- Roll out the pastry and put a strip 2 inches wide around a 2-quart baking dish, slightly overlapping the top edge.
- In the dish place alternate layers of beef, onions, bacon, oysters if wished, and sauce.
- Dampen the pastry strip, then cover the dish with a top crust, pressing it against the strip to seal it and turning it under. Crimp the edges and make a vent in the center of the crust.
- Brush the pastry well with the egg and cream beaten lightly together.
- Bake at 425°F for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375°F and cook until the crust is done and the meat is thoroughly cooked - another 35 to 40 minutes.
