Leftovers.
This is the way I use up cold roast meat or bits of steak: Cut up in small pieces, put on in kettle with cold water and an onion. Cook until tender, then thicken quite thick with flour. Season to taste, put in small round pan, but quite deep, let get cold, then, about an hour before supper, _boiL enough potatoes to cover quite thick. Mash them with milk and butter. Cover meat and bake until meat is thoroughly heated, usually a half hour. If any Is left I warm up for breakfast by mixing in the spider, but there is seldom any left. I like this way better than grinding meat fine and then covering with potatoes and gravy, and just a small amount of meat will amply do for two.
