Venison-less Pie!

Not being able to get hold of any venison at this time of year the plans for the venison pie were put on hold but the other key ingredient of the pie was steak so why not adapt and just make a steak pie? The recipe called for the steak to be marinated in port for 1-2 days followed by casserolling the meat for 2 and a half hours before finally constructing the pie so this is not a quick dinner! I have to say though this is well worth the effort and served to family and friends with smooth mashed potato and spring greens it made an impressive meal which everyone really enjoyed. Roll on the Autumn when I can try the venison version!
