Recipe Tips

  • Browning the ground beef is important as it will reduce the amount of liquid it adds to the pie mixture. If you are low on time you can skip this step, there will be a slight difference but not too much.
  • You can add some extra vegetables if you feel that they are needed. Diced carrot and celery can be added at the start of cooking. However, peas should be added towards the end.
  • By the end of cooking, the mixture is likely to be a bit too fluid. The cornstarch mixture will help thicken it. You may need to thicken the mixture further.
