Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-based saucepan over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the beef cubes in batches and brown them on all sides. Remove and set aside.

Step 4

In the same pan, add the chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 6

Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are browned and any liquid has evaporated.

Step 7

Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir for 1-2 minutes until combined.

Step 8

Gradually stir in the beef stock, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce, ensuring there are no lumps.

Step 9

Return the beef to the pan, along with the thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 10

Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover partially, and let it cook on low heat for about 1 hour or until the beef is tender.

Step 11

Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool before assembling the pie.

Step 12

Roll out one puff pastry sheet and use it to line the base of a pie dish.

Step 13

Fill the pastry-lined dish with the beef and mushroom mixture.

Step 14

Roll out the second puff pastry sheet and place it over the filling, trimming any excess.

Step 15

Crimp the edges and make a few small cuts on top to allow steam to escape.

Step 16

Brush the top with the beaten egg to ensure a golden crust.

Step 17

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.

Step 18

Allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
