130 grams chopped onion (red or yellow)
→ Seasonings and Sauces
03 -
5 grams kosher salt
04 -
2 grams freshly ground black pepper
05 -
15 milliliters Worcestershire sauce
06 -
30 milliliters thick ketchup

07 -
115 grams shredded sharp cheddar cheese

08 -
240 milliliters whole milk
09 -
2 large eggs
10 -
220 grams Bisquick mix
# Steps:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Allow it to fully reach temperature to ensure even baking and a golden crust.
02 -
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and chopped onion, stirring frequently and breaking up the meat. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes until beef is browned and onion is translucent. Drain excess grease.
03 -
Stir kosher salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup into the cooked beef and onion until evenly combined and glossy.
04 -
Transfer the seasoned beef evenly into a 23 cm pie dish, pressing gently to form a uniform layer reaching the edges.
05 -
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot beef layer to begin melting into the mixture.
06 -
In a bowl, whisk together whole milk, eggs, and Bisquick mix until smooth and slightly frothy, with no lumps.
07 -
Slowly pour the Bisquick batter over the cheese and beef in the pie dish, tilting gently if necessary to cover evenly.
08 -
Place the pie on the middle oven rack and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the top is puffed and deep golden brown. A skewer inserted in the centre should come out clean.
09 -
Allow the pie to rest for 5 to 8 minutes before slicing into wedges to ensure clean cuts and proper setting.
# Notes:
01 -
For the lightest crust, whisk the Bisquick batter thoroughly until completely smooth. Using freshly shredded cheese enhances melt and flavor. Letting the pie rest before cutting prevents messy slices.
