Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Carrot, peeled and diced
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 0.5 cup Beef stock
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 4 medium Potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 1 pack Pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 Egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the diced potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 15 minutes or until tender, then drain and return to the pot.
Mash the potatoes with milk, 1 tablespoon of butter, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the onions and garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the diced carrot, frozen peas, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, beef stock, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly.
Sprinkle the flour over the beef mixture and stir well to incorporate. Cook for 2 more minutes to thicken the filling.
Prepare your pie crust according to package or recipe instructions. Line a 9-inch pie dish with the bottom crust, pressing it gently into place.
Pour the beef and vegetable mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Layer the mashed potatoes on top of the beef mixture, smoothing it with a spatula to create an even layer.
Cover the pie with the top crust, sealing the edges by pinching them together. Cut a few small slits in the top for steam to escape.
Brush the top of the pie crust with the beaten egg to create a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and fully cooked.
Allow the pie to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your hearty Savory Meat Potato Pie!
