Meat pie!
I made a pork tenderloin roast while M was away and it was kinda awful. The texture of the meat wasn't what I had hoped and it was preflavored. It was on sale and I figured I'd get a few meals out of it but having it on its own again sounded very unappetizing. Enter the pot pie.
I decided to turn it into a pot pie with a chicken broth gravy (white meats).
Parboiled 2 potatoes.
Sliced one whole onion and sauteed it in butter, added 1 tbs. flour. Added carrots, cooked on medium 3 min. stirring occasionally.
Chucked in the meat and a handful of fresh dill.
Stirred in 1/2 c. -1 c. of cheap white wine. + 2 c. of chicken broth.
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce.
salt + pepper.
Reduce down to a gravy. Add potatos and any green veggie (I used my garden peas). Mix well.
Pour into a casserole dish.
Top with pie crust. (I used a butter shortening combination crust that I made in the food processor; it really compliments the flavor of the gravy and hides any overt wine-y residue. )
mold pie crust around the edges of casserole dish. Cut 3 slits across the top of the pie
Bake for 20 min. or until pie crust is light brown.
Let cool 5 min. Enjoy with some sliced cucumbers and tomatoes on the side.
Makes me wish I had my own pie dish.
