British Meat Pies

Think Pub food is off limits if you have allergies? Wrong! It just takes a little creativity and the right ingredients to recreate a pub in your own home. This meal is based in leftovers re purposed into a great new dish.

 The  meat from this meal is leftover ham  from an earlier crock pot meal. Shred the meat. You will also need leftover mashed potatoes, and whatever veggie mix you like. I use lima beans, peas, carrots and green beans. Grab a muffin tin for assembly and preheat your oven to 375.

Next make a simple rue. If you haven't made an allergen free rue before, don't worry it is easy. You need
2tbsp canola or olive oil
1tsp onion powder
2 1/2 tbsp rice flour
1 cup rice milk

    In a skillet heat the oil over medium heat and sprinkle on your onion powder, stir for just a min then whisk in your rice flour and stir to form a paste (about 1 min). Pour in the rice milk, whisking out lumps and keep whisking until if has thickened. Remove from heat.

To assemble. In each muffin tin place a spoonful of veggies, top with some shredded meat and pour a spoonful of rue over that. Then top with leftover mashed potatoes and place the muffin tin in the oven. Bake until you see that the rue has begun to boil (about 30-45 min).

Scoop out with a spoon to try and retain the rounded shape of the muffin tin.

Serve along side cobbler and with a gluten free beer for a true pub effect :)

Enjoy !
