Joan uses leftover beef pot roast and gravy and cooked vegetables to make this pie. You can also combine and cook diced carrots and peas to make 2 cups (500 mL) or used frozen vegetables instead.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cubed cooked roast beef
  • 2 cups cooked diced vegetables
  • 2 cups gravy
  • 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper
  • Biscuit Topping:
  • 2/3 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Preparation

Biscuit Topping: In large bowl, stir butter with boiling water until butter is melted. Let cool.

Meanwhile, in 9-inch (2.5 L) square metal cake pan, combine roast beef, vegetables, gravy, salt and pepper. Set aside.

Stir egg yolk into butter mixture. In separate bowl, whisk together whole wheat and all-purpose flours, cheese, baking powder and salt. Add to butter mixture. Mix with fork until dough clumps together. On floured surface and with floured hands, knead dough about 3 times until smooth with ragged edges. Pat dough into 8-inch (20 cm) square; cut into 9 squares. Fit squares, side by side, over filling.

Bake in centre of 400°F (200°C) oven until filling is bubbly and biscuits are no longer doughy underneath, about 40 minutes.
