Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: 1-2 hrs

***Crust***

  • 2 cups flour
  • 2/3 cup shortening
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold water

***Filling***

  • 3/4 pound ground chuck or 1/2-inch cubes of steak
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup grated rutabaga (or carrots)
  • 1/2 cup grated (edible) beef suet (optional)
  • 3 cups diced potatoes
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  • OR
  • 1/3 cup fresh chopped parsley

Cut shortening into flour and salt, add water. Mix and knead until well blended. (yes, contrary to pie crust, you knead) Form into 4 balls and chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Roll in to 8 inch circle. Use plenty of flour while rolling out.

Mix the filling together in a large bowl. Roll out the dough, and brush the edges with milk. Put 1 cup of filling onto one side of each crust and fold over. Seal the edge by pressing with a fork. Put on cookie sheet, cut 1 slit (1/2 inch) in each for steam and brush top with milk.

Bake in 400 degrees F oven on bottom shelf for 25 minutes, then move to middle shelf for 20 minutes.
