Jamie at Home
By Jamie Oliver
A hearty, boozy pie
About the recipe
There's nothing like a comforting steak and Guinness pie to warm your cockles when it's cold outside.
Recipe From
3 red onions
3 cloves of garlic
2 carrots
2 sticks of celery
4 field mushrooms
a few sprigs of rosemary
olive oil
1kg quality brisket or stewing beef, cut into 2cm cubes
440ml Guinness (no lager, please!)
2 heaped tablespoons plain flour, plus extra for dusting
140g Cheddar cheese
170g puff pastry
1 large egg
This pie is a real winner! It uses shop-bought puff pastry, which makes it easier to prepare, and you can make the filling the day before if you want. For a bit of a treat you could use 500g of pastry and line the bottom of the pie dish - just make sure you cook it at the bottom of the oven so the pastry has a chance to crisp up.
