1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |

1/2 cup milk |
1/2 cup cubed uncooked potatoes |

1/2 cup cubed uncooked carrots |
1/4 cup chopped onion |
1/2 pound ground beef or diced beef top sirloin steak, browned |
Directions:
1. Mix together first three ingredients; cut in shortening to form particles the size of large peas. Gradually add milk and mix just enough to make mixture stick together. Lightly shape dough into four balls; let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, combine vegetables and meat. On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a circle. Place one-fourth of the vegetable/meat mixture on one side of each circle; brush edge of crust with water and fold half the dough over filling. Press edges together to seal.
