Company's Coming Beef Pot Pie image

When I get into one of my marathon cooking moods I like to make these pot pies to put into the freezer for a night when I don't feel like cooking or time is short. Great to have on hand for a quick company meal as well.

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 1/2 lb beef roast, cut into small pieces
1 large onion, diced
3 medium carrots, diced
2 celery, diced
3 large potatoes, diced
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
2 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 Tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
1/2 tsp paprika (smoked)
2 c beef broth
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 c cream
3/4 c fresh or frozen petite baby peas
1 puff pastry sheet, thawed
1 large egg, beaten
olive oil, extra virgin
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. In a large Dutch oven, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add beef and brown on all sides. Remove beef from pan and set aside.
  • 2. Add onion, carrot, potato and celery to the pot. Cook over medium heat until tender. Add mushrooms and garlic and cook about 5 minutes longer. Add thyme, rosemary, and paprika. Add a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Return beef to the pot and pour in broth. Stir to combine and bring to a low simmer. Cover the pot and allow stew to simmer until beef is very tender, about 1½ - 2 hours. Shred beef and return to pot.
  • 3. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and milk/cream. Pour into pot and bring up to a simmer. Cook until thickened a bit, about 5 minutes. Stir in frozen peas and remove from heat. If making individual pot pies, pour filling into 4-6 individual-sized baking dishes. (If making one large pie, pour into an 8″ x 8″ baking dish.) In a small bowl, make egg wash by whisking egg with 1-2 teaspoons of water.
  • 4. Roll puff pastry out slightly and brush with egg wash. Cut pastry into 4-6 squares, large enough to cover each baking dish. (If making one pie, don't cut). Place pastry over each baking dish. Use a sharp knife and make a few small slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape while baking. Bake pies at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, or until golden. Makes 4-6 individual pies or 1 (8″ x 8″) pie.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beef. It's also a great make-ahead meal.

I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it turned out just as good as if I had made my own.

The filling was a bit too thick for my taste, but the crust was amazing!

This beef pot pie was a hit with my family! The crust was flaky and golden brown, and the filling was rich and flavorful. I especially loved the addition of carrots and peas, which added a nice sweetness and crunch to the dish.
