Don't let the ingredient list intimidate you. This recipe yields two pies – one for dinner and one to freeze for a busy day ahead.
Simmering dried fruit and spices in the sauce makes the fruit plump and gives a sweet edge to this luxurious beef stew. Serve with a side of couscous for a Moroccan-style meal.
You can wrap the vegetables with the salmon early in the day, then drizzle with the wine mixture just before baking. Place the package on a long platter and open it at the table to tempt your guests with a wave of herbal aromas. Baby New Potatoes are the perfect accompaniment.
