Tourtiere Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

1 lb Lean ground pork (try beef)
2 Cloves garlic, minced
1 Onion, finely chopped
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Crumbled sage
1/2 tsp Ground allspice
1/4 tsp Ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch Cloves
1 cup Chicken stock
1 1/2 cup Cooked red kidney beans mash
Double-crust pastry

Recipe Instructions:

The recommended Gluten-Free Pastry adds 184 calories, 1 starch
choice, 1 1/2 fat. Try serving the filling hot with potatoes or
toast, or with a breadcrumb topping, or serve in a home made tortilla.

Stir-cook ground meat and onion until meat is no longer pink. (Regular
ground meat is much less expensive than lean.) Drain fat and return
meat to the pan, add spices and stock. This will take about 15
minutes.

Stir in mashed beans and simmer until liquid is just evaporated, about
another 15 minutes. Cool filling about 30 minutes if making pie
crust. Serve hot immediately, refrigerate cooled mixture up to 3
days, or freeze cooled portions up to 3 months.

"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?"
