Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sliced onions
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 pinch ground allspice
  • 1 pinch ground ginger
  • 1 pound boneless round steak, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 1/2 cups boiling water
  • 3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • Pastry for single-crust pie

Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, saute the onions in 2 tablespoons oil until golden. Drain and set aside. In a plastic bag combine dry ingredients; add meat and shake to coat. In the same skillet, cook meat in remaining oil until no longer pink. Add water; cover and simmer until meat is tender, about 1 hour.

Add potatoes, simmer, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Pour into a greased 1 1/2-quart baking dish. Top with onion slices. Roll pastry to fit baking dish. Place over hot filling; seal to edges of dish. Make slits in the crust.

Bake at 450 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown. If necessary, cover edges of crust with foil to prevent over browning.
