Prepare Dough:

-
-
Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) in preparation for baking.
-
Saute Vegetables:
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onion, chopped celery, and minced garlic. Saute for about 5 minutes until the onion begins to soften.
- Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and continue cooking until they are tender.
-
Prepare Filling:
- To the skillet, add the cooked and sliced roast beef, nutmeg, and ground cloves. Stir well to combine.
- Pour in the red wine and cooked vegetables. Allow the mixture to simmer while you prepare the brown sauce.
-
Make Brown Sauce:
- In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
- Gradually add flour to the melted butter, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
- Slowly pour in the beef broth, continuing to stir until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
- Add balsamic vinegar to the sauce and stir to incorporate.
- If desired, add bread crumbs to the filling to thicken it further. Remove the saucepan from heat.

Roll Out Dough:
- Roll out the prepared dough on a floured surface until it is 1 1/2 times the size of your pie pan.

Prepare Pie Pan:

-
Assemble Pie:
- Pour the prepared filling into the pie pan, then cover it with the brown sauce.

Seal the Pie:
- Bring the outer edges of the crust toward the center of the pie, pinching the dough together to seal it. Leave some space for steam to escape during baking.
-
Bake:
