Recipe Summary (Serves 6):

Prep Time: 25 minutes

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients: 1 lb (450g) cooked beef (cubed, from stew or roast), 1 sheet puff pastry or pie dough, 1 large onion (chopped), 2 carrots (diced), 2 celery stalks (diced), 1 cup frozen peas, 4 tbsp butter, 1/4 cup flour, 2 cups beef broth, 1 egg (beaten).

Instructions:

Make Filling: In a large skillet, melt butter and sauté onion, carrots, and celery until soft. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the beef broth until a smooth gravy forms.

Combine: Bring the gravy to a simmer and cook until thickened. Stir in the cooked beef and frozen peas. Season with salt and pepper.

Assemble: Pour the hot filling into a 9-inch pie dish or oven-safe skillet. Drape the pie crust or puff pastry over the top, trimming and crimping the edges. Cut a few slits in the top for steam to escape.

Bake: Brush the crust with the beaten egg. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
