• Alternatively, pop in a covered oven dish at 160*, and simmer for 1 hour 40 minutes
• If the gravy is still feeling a little thin, drain into a pan and reduce
• If need be, can thicken slightly with a mixture of soft butter and flour. Add a little at a time and whisk through
• Let mix cool, cover, and put in refrigerate for a couple of days

ASSEMBLY AND COOKING
• Wash pie dish with a beaten egg
• Pop mix into a pie dish and bring to room temperature
