The steak and kidney pie is a typical British dish with a filling of diced beef steak and beef (ox), lamb’s or pig’s kidneys in a thick sauce. It is often, but not always, a one-crust pie, which means that the filling is covered but not completely enclosed by the pastry. Besides being made fresh in a kitchen or a restaurant, food processing firms offer this foodstuff frozen in a box, or canned (in a tin). Large cans even come in the size and shape of regular pie pans. The sauce typically consists of beef broth, flavoured with salt, pepper and parsley, onions, and thickened with flour, cornstarch or beurre manié.
