Ingredients

• 1 pound beef chuck roast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large yellow onion
• 3 garlic cloves
• 8 ounces button mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 cup red wine
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 package shortcrust pastry
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon water

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes in batches and sear until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch. Remove the beef and set aside.

Step 3

Chop the onion and garlic cloves. Slice the button mushrooms.

Step 4

In the same pot, add the butter. Once melted, add the onion and garlic, cooking until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they start to brown and release moisture, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 7

Slowly pour in the beef broth and red wine, stirring to combine with the mushroom mixture. Bring to a simmer.

Step 8

Return the beef to the pot, add Worcestershire sauce, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper.

Step 9

Reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer gently for about 1.5 hours, or until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened.

Step 10

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 11

Roll out the shortcrust pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit your pie dish. Line the dish with pastry, trimming any excess.

Step 12

Pour the beef and mushroom mixture into the pastry-lined dish.

Step 13

Cover with another layer of pastry, sealing the edges. Cut a few slits on top to allow steam to escape.

Step 14

Beat the egg with water to create an egg wash. Brush the top pastry with the egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 15

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.

Step 16

Remove from oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your warm and hearty beef mushroom pie!
