• 1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon water, divided
• 1 medium potato, peeled and diced

Preparation

Step 1

In a small skillet, brown beef in oil; set aside. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine gravy mix and 1/2 cup water. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes or until thickened, stirring frequently. In a large bowl, combine the beef, potato, carrot, onion, parsley, garlic and seasonings; stir in 1 tablespoon gravy. Set aside remaining gravy.

Place pastry on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Spoon meat mixture over half of pastry. Fold pastry over filling and seal edges tightly with a fork; cut slits in the top. Combine egg and remaining water; brush over top.

Bake at 375° for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown. Warm reserved gravy; serve with pie. Yield: 2 servings.

REVIEWS:

This is a really good recipe that is easy to make. It's nice that I can use just a little gravy and still have great flavor without having a soupy potpie.

We tried it and it was almost as good as a yooper pastie, good flavor!
