Preparation
For the pie:
- Make a pie crust by warming milk, water, butter, and shortening until everything is melted.
- Beat 1 egg and add it to the milk mixture.
- Mix this warm into the flour, stir well, and knead into a dough.
- Let rest for at least 1 hour in foil in the refrigerator.
- Sear the veal cheeks well in oil. Remove them from the pan.
- Add the shallot, garlic, sliced mushrooms, and celeriac and sauté in the drippings from the veal cheeks.
- Deglaze with the bottle of bock beer.
- Place the veal cheeks in this.
- Now add just enough veal jus to cover the cheeks.
- Gently cook the whole (with the lid on the pan) until the cheeks are tender and soft.
- Pull the meat apart, strain the rest, and mix the meat with the mushrooms and celeriac.
- Add a little of the cooking liquid so that a creamy filling remains.
- Fill the molds with the above filling.
- Roll out the dough, brush the sides of the molds with beaten egg, and press a piece of dough on top. Tip: cut the dough in the middle to allow steam to escape.
- Place in an oven at 200°C until the 'lid' is golden brown.
