Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground beef
• 300 grams Green beans
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 120 milliliters Beef stock
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 sheets Pre-made pie crust
• 1 large Egg, beaten

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft and translucent.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking up the meat with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Add the tomato paste, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle the flour over the beef mixture and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 7

Gradually add the beef stock, stirring constantly to create a smooth, thickened mixture.

Step 8

Stir in the green beans and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are tender but still bright green. Remove the skillet from heat and let the filling cool slightly.

Step 9

Roll out one sheet of pre-made pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any overhang.

Step 10

Pour the beef and green bean filling into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 11

Cover the filling with the second sheet of pie crust. Trim the edges and press them together to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork for a decorative finish.

Step 12

Cut several small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 13

Brush the beaten egg over the top crust to give it a golden, shiny finish.

Step 14

Place the pie on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and crispy.

Step 15

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
