Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef chuck
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Onion
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 medium Carrots
- 2 pieces Celery stalks
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 250 milliliters Beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 100 grams Frozen peas
- 500 grams Pastry dough
- 1 piece Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Cut the beef chuck into 1-inch cubes. Season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the beef in batches to brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and dice the carrots and celery.
In the same pot, add chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute to coat the vegetables.
Gradually add beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps, followed by tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and dried thyme. Bring to a simmer.
Return the browned beef to the pot. Stir well and let simmer uncovered for 40-45 minutes until the beef is tender and the sauce thickens.
Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Roll out half of the pastry dough on a floured surface and use it to line a 9-inch pie dish.
Spoon the beef and vegetable mixture into the pastry-lined dish.
Roll out the remaining pastry and cover the pie, trimming any excess. Seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water for an egg wash and brush it over the pie crust.
Make a few small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
Let the pie cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your homemade meat pie!
