(1943 was a time of ration cards and careful meal planning. This particular
dish was sent in by an industrious reader who made the most of what she
had.)
1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 well-beaten egg yolks
1 cup milk
1 to 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped leftover meat
2 teaspoons minced onion
1/4 cup grated carrot
2 tablespoons melted shortening
2 stiffly beaten egg whites
Pour all of your dry ingredients into a sifter and sift together. Mix your egg
yolks and milk together and then add them to the sifted ingredients. Stir
well. Add the onion, meat, carrot, and shortening; mix well. Fold in the egg
whites. Now pour the entire mixture into a well-greased 1-quart baking dish.
Bake at 425 degrees for 45 minutes. Serve with gravy (preferably left over).

Mum's Impossible Pie., February 5, 2004 - 08:52 AM
Reviewer: Mary from Alex, Va
I baked this pie and ask my 12yr old grandaughter to try a piece. Ask her what she thought. Good was the answer. From a almost teenager. I took that as it taste good. I sent a piece home to my daughters house, she called me and ask what was the piece of pie called? She also said it was good.I guess this receipe is a winner. Mary.
