Rustic British Minced Beef Pie with Sweet Caramelized Onions and Flaky Pastry
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
2 tablespoons butter
2 large onions, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 cup beef broth
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, beaten
Fresh parsley for garnish
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
Add sliced onions and cook slowly for 20-25 minutes, stirring often, until deeply caramelized and golden brown.
Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Push onions to the side of the skillet and add olive oil.
Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.
Sprinkle flour over the beef mixture and stir well.
Add Worcestershire sauce, thyme, smoked paprika, and beef broth.
Simmer for 8-10 minutes until the filling thickens into a rich savory gravy.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Transfer the beef filling into a pie dish and let cool slightly.
Cover with puff pastry and trim excess edges.
Crimp the edges with a fork and cut small slits on top for ventilation.
Brush the pastry with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until the crust is puffed and deeply golden.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
