Beef And Mushroom Pot Pie Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until browned. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
  • Season the beef with the creole seasoning. Add enough oil to the pan to equal 2 tablespoons of fat and heat over medium-high. When hot, add the beef (in batches, if necessary to prevent overcrowding). Cook until brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and add the onions, adding more oil as needed. Cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until wilted and starting to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the salt, pepper, flour, and Worcestershire, and stir well. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the beer and stock and brandy, and stir to deglaze the pan. Bring to a boil and add the bay leaf, parsley, and thyme, and return the meat to the pan. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender, about 1 hour. Remove from the heat, discard the bay leaf, and adjust the seasoning, to taste.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Roll out the pastry crust on a lightly floured surface into a circle large enough to cover the top of the baking dish. (recipe below)
  • Add the cooked bacon to the meat mixture. Pour into a large, round, deep-dish, ceramic, baking pan. Place the pastry crust on top of the baking dish, crimping around the sides to seal. Cut a vent hole in the center with a small sharp knife. Brush with the beaten egg and bake until golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and serve with salad, assorted cheeses, and hot bread.
  • Creole Seasoning:
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
  • 2 tablespoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
  • Yield: about 2/3 cup
  • Pastry Top:
  • 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 tablespoons cold water
  • Into a medium bowl, sift together the flour and salt. Add the butter and work in with fingertips until coarse crumbs form. Add enough cold water 1 teaspoon at a time to form a smooth dough, being careful not to overwork the dough. Cover and let rest, refrigerated for 30 minutes before rolling out.
  • Yield: 1 crust
