Ingredients

  • PIE CRUST
  • 2 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup shortening or 1 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup ice cold water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • FILLING
  • 4 pork chops
  • 2 sweet potatoes
  • 1 large sweet onion
  • 1 red pepper
  • 1 fresno chile pepper (optional)
  • 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth or 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 8 ounces sour cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon marjoram
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon thyme
  • cracked black pepper

Directions

  1. 1
    PIE CRUST: Makes one set top/bottom.
  2. 2
    Mix together white wheat flour, salt, and sugar.
  3. 3
    Cut shortening or butter into flour. I like to leave pretty good size chunks of shortening or butter to make the pie crust more flaky.
  4. 4
    Add ICE COLD water a Tbsp at a time until flour/shortening pieces stick together and are ballable. ** I always add a different amount of water when doing pie crust. At most you may use a 1/4 C of water and at least you may use 1/8°C I think it depends on the moisture in the flour/sugar/salt/air as to how much you would add.**.
  5. 5
    Split ball into half and roll out bottom and top of pie crust to a 1/2 centimeter thickness.
  6. 6
    FILLING: Fills 2 pie crusts
  7. 7
    Flour pork chops and cook in frying pan on med-low heat with butter. Take out, cube, and set aside.
  8. 8
    Cube sweet potatoes, onion, red pepper, Fresno pepper and spices into frying pan with chicken broth. Bring to boil and simmer for 15-20 minute
  9. 9
    Put an equal ratio of flour and butter together in a small cup (usually one tbsp to one tbsp is enough) mix into broth and veggies. This will thicken the broth to make it more like a gravy. You can use several different techniques to thicken broth.
  10. 10
    Add cubed pork and sour cream to frying pan.
  11. 11
    Simmer for a few min, then pour into pie crust. Cover with 2nd layer of crust. Bake for 50 min at 375.
