-
1
Preheat the oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC). If using a store-bought pie crust, remove it from the refrigerator to come to room temperature.
AI Wisdom: Bringing the pie crust to room temperature will make it easier to work with. -
2
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
AI Wisdom: Cooking the onions and garlic first will build a flavorful base for the meat pie filling. -
3
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes.
AI Wisdom: Ensure the ground beef is fully cooked before proceeding. -
4
Stir in the carrots, peas, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir to combine.
AI Wisdom: The flour will help thicken the filling. -
5
Pour in the beef stock, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens slightly. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Simmer for another 5 minutes until the filling is thick and flavorful.
AI Wisdom: Adjust seasoning according to your taste preference. -
6
Roll out one pie crust and line a 9-inch pie dish with it. Pour the meat filling into the crust. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Pinch the edges to seal and cut slits on top for ventilation.
AI Wisdom: A lattice crust or decorative finish can elevate the appearance of the pie. -
7
Bake the meat pie in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
AI Wisdom: Allowing the pie to rest will help the filling set. -
8
Serve the old-fashioned meat pie hot and enjoy a comforting and hearty meal!
