This is a great recipe, sorry no great timesaving short-cuts. It sounds like a lot of work to make your own pot pie dough, it's not really. If you use a food processor, it comes together quickly. Other than the time spent on the dough, it's a pretty quick recipe (for Dutch cooking). It smells great while it's cooking, and tastes like a take-off of Shepherd's Pie, of course with noodles instead of potatoes. Enjoy!
Step 1: Make Pot Pie Dough
Mix together
2 c. flour
1 egg
1/2 tsp. salt
3-4 tbsp. water
Combine to form a dough. Roll thin on a board or cookie sheet.
Step 2: The filling
1 lb. hamburger
1 small onion (chopped)
1 egg
1/4 c. bread crumbs
salt & pepper to taste
Brown the hamburger and onion until done. Place in a bowl to cool slightly. Add egg and bread crumbs, salt and pepper.
Step 3: Assembly
Take the hamburger mixture and spread it over the pot pie dough. Dip your finger (or a pastry brush) in water and brush around the outside edge of the dough.
Roll up the dough/hamburger, the water on the edge will make it stick together.
Carefully cut this roll into 1 inch slices. In a large boiler, put about 6-8 ozs. beef gravy (we use canned gravy, you can't tell), lay the pinwheels in a single layer on gravy, and add another 6-8 ozs. gravy on top. If you're using canned gravy, add another 1/2 can of water. Boil on top of the stove gently (low heat) partially covered for about 1 hour. If it gets too dry, you may add some more water. It should have gravy when it's done.
