Jamie Olivers Steak and Guinness Pie Recipe

How to make it

---

• . sauté onions on the stove top with a little olive oil, salt and pepper until slightly browned in a deep pot.
• 2. stir in a sprig of rosemary.
• 3. add in the 3 cloves of minced garlic.
• 4. add 1 tbsp butter.
• 5. add celery and carrots and peas.
• 6. add mushrooms.
• 7. add beef.
• 8. add a pinch of pepper and salt.
• 9. add 1 can Guinness.
• 10. stir in 1 heaping tbsp flour.
• 11. pour in beef stock to top off stew; liquid should not cover beef.
• 12. cook at 350 degrees for 2 hours in oven safe pot or bowl.
• 13. pull stew filling out of oven and stir in 1 handful of shredded white cheddar cheese.
• 14. roll out puff pastry to about 3mm if needed; some puff pastries already come rolled out, you just need to unfold them from the package.
• 15. line the bottom of a oven safe bowl or pie pan that is about 4 inches deep and 8-10 inches in diameter with the puff pastry.
• 16. pour in the stew filling.
• 17. sprinkle the other handful of shredded cheddar cheese on top of stew filling.
• 18. brush the outer edge of the puff pastry with the beaten egg (this will act like glue when you put the top on).
• 19. cover with another piece of puff pastry that has been lightly scored with a knife; in watching the show, I am pretty sure you are not supposed to cut all the way through the pastry. You should still be able to pick up the section of pastry without it coming apart.
• 20. press around the edges so the top puff pastry is sealed to the bottom puff pastry.
• 21. fold in excess puff pastry that is draping over the bowl/pan so it has a crinkled look on the top.
• 22. brush top with beaten egg.
• 23. put pie in the oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until bubbly and golden.
• 24. towards the end of the cook time for the pie, cook a package of frozen peas according to package directions.
• 25. once pie is finished cooking, pull out of the oven; spoon peas over top of each pie serving.
