Categories: Beef, Pastry, Vegetables
     Yield: 5 Servings

   3/4 c  A-P flour; divided
     1 ts Salt
   1/4 ts Pepper
     3 lb Beef stew meat; 3/4" cubes
     3 tb Oil
     6 c  Hot water
     1 md Onion; chopped
    16 oz Frozen peas & carrots
     2    Cubes beef bouillon
          +=OR=+
     1 tb Beef base
   3/4 c  Cold water
     1    (9") pie crust

 Combine the 1/2 cup of the flour, salt, and pepper.
 Coat the meat with the flour mixture.

 In a Dutch oven or heavy skillet, heat oil. Brown the
 flour-coated meat mixture in hot oil. Add the hot water
 and onion, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer
 covered 2 to 2-1/2 hours until tender.

 Cook the peas & carrots according to package directions,
 drain. Add to stew mixture along with the bouillon
 cubes/base. Stir to dissolve the bouillon.

 In a separate bowl, combine the cold water with the
 remaining 1/4 cup of flour. Bring the stew to a boil and
 add the flour mixture. Boil for 1 minute, stirring often.

 TO MAKE THE PIE TOPS: Set oven @ 400 degrees F. Cut the
 pie tops from prepared crust with a large cookie cutter
 and prick with a fork. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet
 and bake for 10 minutes, or until they look flaky and
 slightly brown.

 Place the stew mixture in 5 individual 2-cup casseroles.
 Just before serving, place an individual pie top on each
 casserole.

 Makes 5 servings.
