Recipe for Classic Australian Meat Pies

Ingredients:

• 500g ground beef or minced meat
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup beef stock
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 sheets of puff pastry (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 egg (for egg wash)

Steps:

1. Prepare the Filling:
   • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sauté until softened.
   • Add ground beef and cook until browned. Break the meat into small pieces while cooking.
   • Sprinkle flour over the meat and stir well, allowing it to cook for about 1 minute.
   • Gradually add beef stock while stirring. Then add tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, salt, and pepper.
   • Let the mixture simmer until thickened, approximately 10-15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
2. Prepare the Pastry:
   • Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
   • Roll out puff pastry sheets and cut them into circles to fit the base and top of your pie tins.
   • Line the pie tins with pastry, ensuring the edges are well-pressed.
3. Assemble the Pies:
   • Fill the pastry cases with the cooled meat mixture, leaving space at the top for sealing.
   • Cover with a second pastry circle, pressing the edges to seal. Use a fork for a decorative crimp.
   • Brush the tops with egg wash for a golden finish.
4. Bake:
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
5. Serve:
   • Allow to cool slightly before removing from tins. Serve warm with tomato sauce or gravy.
