🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 STEAK PIE 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My dad loves to serve a steak pie as the main event for a burns night, with haggis neeps and tatties as a starter! You have to arrive hungry!!! Really just a stew with a pastry lid, it’s so tasty and is also a popular choice for a Hogmanay feast! I reckon it’s good any day, especially when the rain is battering the windows and you just want something warm and comforting with a bottle of red wine!
I love the different texture and flavour the sausage adds, well worth the inclusion! 👏🏼👏🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Serves 4
——————————-
500g stewing steak
6 beef link sausages
1 brown onion
3 sticks celery
4 carrots
3 cloves of garlic
Bunch of thyme
1 bay leaf
300ml beef stock
1 can stout (I used oatmeal stout)
1 pack ready rolled puff pastry
1 tbsp plain flour
1tsp onion powder
1tsp allspice
1 tsp salt

Sauté your sliced onion and finely chopped celery, with a pinch of salt, then add your sliced garlic, and carrots. Add 1 bay leaf and a small bunch of thyme tied with string. Sauté for 5 mins then remove and put aside till your meat is browned.
Remove the skin from your sausages and break into bite size pieces. Brown them off in the pan and keep aside. Mix the plain flour, onion powder, all spice and salt together and toss your stewing steak through till all coated. Fry in batches till browned then add the sausages and veg back to the pan. Add the stock and stout and bring to the boil, stick the lid on and get in the oven.
Cook at 170c (fan) for 2 hours. Remove the bay leaf and thyme, adjust your seasoning if required and get into your pie dish. Cover with the sheet of puff pastry and with a sharp knife, cut the overhanging pastry off. You can use the off cuts to make a design on the top! Make two small slits, brush with beaten egg and get back into the oven at 180c (fan) for around 25 mins till golden and crispy.
Cut into 4 and serve with buttery mash and veggies.
