Ingredients
- 1 garlic
- 0.34 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1/10 lb coles frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 1/10 lb extra lean beef mince
- 1 onion
- 1 beef stock cube
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 3 1/2 oz tomato paste
- 1 egg
- 8 4/5 oz pampas puff pastry
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce
- 0.53 oz tomato sauce
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 356°F (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- 2Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes until it begins to soften and turn translucent.
- 3Add the minced garlic and continue to sauté for another 30 seconds, being careful not to let it burn.
- 4Increase the heat to medium‑high and add the beef mince, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook for 5–6 minutes until the meat is browned all over.
- 5Stir in the beef stock cube, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and 100 ml of water. Mix well and let the mixture simmer for 3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- 6Add the frozen mixed vegetables to the skillet, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook for an additional 4–5 minutes until the vegetables are heated through.
- 7Remove the pan from the heat and let the filling cool slightly (about 5 minutes). This makes it easier to portion into the containers.
- 8While the filling cools, cut the puff pastry into four equal squares that will fit the tops of your individual glass or ramekin containers.
- 9Divide the beef‑vegetable filling evenly among four small, oven‑safe glass containers, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- 10Place a puff pastry square on each container, pressing gently around the edges to seal. Trim any excess pastry if necessary.
- 11In a small bowl, whisk the egg and brush the beaten egg over the surface of each pastry square for a golden finish. (Optional: sprinkle with sesame seeds and a crack of black pepper).
- 12Bake the assembled pot pies in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
- 13Remove the pies from the oven and allow them to rest for 3 minutes.
- 14Drizzle the remaining 15 g of tomato sauce over the top of each pot pie just before serving.
