Beef Dinner Pie

Half sweet potatoes and half regular potato. For the filling I used ground beef, onions, tomatoes, garlic, peas, and corn. Cook the mixture on the stove top and then add and finally top with starch of your choice. A little sea salt on top adds flavor. Preheat oven for 300 and place the dish in for about 20 minutes or until the top is golden.

Passover Menu Items


First I sauté eggplant with white onions and garlic. Added salt, pepper, paprika and cumin. Top with herbs of choice, I used flat leaf parsley. 

 

First I boiled half a bone in chicken for about an hour and a half, remove chicken and using a strainer strain the broth. Add carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, chopped fresh parsley to the broth. Cook the vegetables in the broth and remove the chicken from the bone and add to the broth as well. I cook the matzah balls in a separate dish until fully cooked. For the matzah balls I use two cups matzah meal, two eggs, paprika, salt, pepper, two tablespoons of olive oil. Mix all together and form balls and cook in a pot for about an hour. Once everything is cooked place in the soup pot and cook for one more hour so everything is flavorful, make sure to add salt and pepper to taste!

 First spread some tomato sauce on your sheet of dry matzah, too with ground pepper, shredded mozzarella cheese, sautéed onions with paprika, cumin, salt and pepper, sunny side up eggs seasoned with the same spices, then finish with freshly cut basil shreds

Meat Pies & Vegan Pies


To make these pies you must first thaw out some puff pastry and cook the filling on the stove top separately. On the stove top I cooked various vegetables with a tomato sauce, spices and garlic. Lay the pastry out and create cuts on either sides of the dough, making sure to leave the middle solid and untouched. Once filled in the middle begin breading the sides, brush some egg wash, and sprinkle some sesame seeds. 

For the beef pie, saute the beef with tomatoes, onions, garlic, bell peppers, with a tablespoon of tomato sauce or paste. Once cooked fill the middle, braid it and follow the same steps as before. Place in the oven on 300 for 25 minutes or until golden. You can also sprinkle with spices of choice. I like to use paprika for color.

I loved it when my husband surprised me and we tried this new establishment in Beverly Hills. You feel like you're out of town enjoying a nice dinner. The staff is well educated, delightful, and helpful. We order several dishes and enjoyed every single item.
