- 6 oz. Old Neighborhood Beef Shaved Steak
- prepared pie dough (such as Pillsbury)
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1/2 cup potatoes, diced
- 1/2 cup carrots, diced
- 1/3 cup onions, diced
- 1/4 cup celery, diced
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 3/4 cup tomato paste
- 1 tbsp. flour
- 3/4 cup beef broth
- 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp. water
- Taking your prepared pie dough, cut out eight 4-inch circles.
- Heat a pan on medium heat. Add 1 tbsp. olive oil.
- When the oil is heated, toss in the diced potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions. Cook for about 4 minutes.
- Add the beef shaved steak, followed by the salt, garlic powder, thyme, and sugar. Cook for about 2 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste and stir.
- Add the flour, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for another minute or so.
- Remove from heat.
- Preheat the oven to 375°.
- Create an egg wash using the egg and 1 tbsp. of water.
- Take one pie dough circle and place a bit of the meat mix in the center.
- Line the top half edge of the circle with egg wash.
- Fold the bottom half of the circle over the meat and line it up with the top edge. I found that it is best to do this step in your hands, rather than on a flat surface.
- Use a fork to then “crimp” the edge of the circle, and use a knife to cut a few slits on the top of the half-circle.
- Repeat this for the remaining dough circles.
- Place all the mini pies on lightly greased foil or baking dish.
- Brush a bit of egg wash over each mini pie.
- Cook all of the pies at 375° for about 18-24 minutes, until the dough is lightly browned and crispy.
- Let cool for a few minutes and enjoy.
