1/2 tsp salt
1/4 pt water
2 oz beef drippings

12 oz puff pastry
1 beaten egg for glaze

Preparation
Mix all base ingredients thoroughly. Roll out to about 1/8"
thickness.
Roll out puff pastry to 1/4" thickness.
Saute the beef. Dissolve the stock cube in the water, add to beef.
Season to taste. Sprinkle with flour and cook till flour is browned
and incorporated well. Adjust seasoning and coloring to taste.
Make pies by putting scoops of about 1/4 cup on the base crust. Egg
glaze around the filling and top with the puff pastry, using the egg
glaze as a "glue" (try not to leave large air pockets). Cut around
the filling, creating individual pies. Brush the top with more egg
glaze for color and bake at 350 degrees till puffed and browned.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
Recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. At times when going through a hectic day, you imagine you feel hunger but if truth be told you just need a restorative tumbler of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.
The case against reduced carb diets
Its popular as hell, but it is truly safe for you?
Increased consumption of animal-based products might lead into increased consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which many authorities believe will increase the chance of heart disease.
Many scientific studies over the last few years have shown that high consumption of animal fat can result in greater probability of cancer, coronary problems and other serious illnesses.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes paprika, mangos and winter squash)
