> Get enough steak to cover the bottom of an ovenproof pie-dish , more or

> I get something called chuck or stewing steak or a piece of brisket. Add
> about 1/4 the weight in chopped onion. about the same volume as the onion in
> musherooms stir fry the whole thing in a big pan until the steak is sealed
> (add a squish of garlic if liked) transfer to the bottom of your pie dish
> and add 2 or three chopped up carrots and a couple of chopped up potatoes.
> Put a half pint of any old not too salty stock ( or brown ale ) in your hot
> fry pan and scrape all the good bits into it then pour over steak and stuff.

> At this point you want to season it - celery salt and ground pepper works

> Take the pastry that you have previously defrosted, get someone to roll it
> out, and put over top, decorate, put a couple small holes in etc. Bake in
> moderately hot oven for about 40 mins - leave to stand another 10 mins or so
