Ingredients

  • 1 ready-rolled puff pastry sheet
  • 1 cup cubed leftover beef
  • 2 cups chopped white mushrooms
  • 2 spring onions, chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup mixed frozen vegetables
  • 2 potatoes
  • 2 cups beef stock/broth
  • 2 tablespoon cornflour (corn starch)
  • 2 tablespoon milk
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 knob of butter
  • 1 egg for brushing the pastry

Instructions

  • Melt the butter, add the oil, then in go the mushrooms, spring onions and garlic.
  • Gently fry until the mushrooms are a golden brown colour.
  • Peel and chop the potatoes, and add them to the pan together with the frozen veggies and beef.
  • Pour in the stock, and leave to cook for 15 minutes or until the veggies are tender.
  • Mix the cornflour with milk to get a lump-free liquid, then add it to the filling to get a thicker sauce.
  • Season with salt and pepper, take it off the heat and leave to cool completely.
  • Transfer the filling to an oven-proof dish, and brush the edges with beaten egg.
  • Cut the puff pastry to make a lid for the dish - it all depends on the size of your dish.
  • Brush with more beaten egg, and use a sharp knife to make a few cuts in the pastry to allow the steam to escape.
  • Bake at 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit) for 25 minutes until golden and flaky.
