Ingredients
- 750g braising steak, cut into chunks
- 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
- 2 onions, sliced
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 1 tbsp plain flour
- 330ml ale
- 300ml beef stock
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 375g puff pastry
- 1 egg, beaten for glazing
- 300g mashed potatoes to serve
- 200g peas to serve
Method
Prepare the ingredients and trim any large visible pieces of fat from the beef.
Heat the oil in a heavy pan over a medium-high heat, then brown the beef in batches so it colours rather than steams.
Add the aromatics and spices, stirring until they smell fragrant.
Fill the pastry neatly, seal the edges, glaze if using egg, and bake until the pastry is crisp and the beef filling is hot.
Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve with the suggested side. Nutrition values are estimates for planning and will vary with exact ingredients and portion size.
