Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until softened. Add the diced potatoes, peas, and carrots. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Stir in the beef broth, tomato paste, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let it simmer for 10 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Transfer the beef and potato mixture to a pie dish. Roll out the puff pastry and place it over the filling. Trim any excess pastry and crimp the edges to seal. Brush the top with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and flaky.
  7. Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Make Ahead: Prepare the filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Assemble and bake the pie when ready to serve. Customize: Add your favorite vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers for extra flavor. Crust Variation: Use a homemade pie crust or store-bought for convenience.
