  • salt/pepper
  • 4 coves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. Place a large, deep skillet on medium-high heat and add the butter and olive oil
  2. Once the butter is melted, add onions, carrots, celery, and a pinch of salt and pepper
  3. Sauté the veggies until softened, about 3-4 minutes
  4. Add the garlic and cook for 60 seconds
  5. Add ground beef, Italian seasoning, white pepper, and a pinch of salt
  6. Break up the ground beef to a fine consistency
  7. Cook until there is no more pink
  8. Add tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce and stir into the beef mixture then sprinkle in the flour and stir until well blended
  9. Add in the beef stock and diced potato and stir until combined
  10. Cover and allow the filling to gently simmer, just until potatoes are tender and the sauce thickens (about 25 minutes)
  11. To finish the filling, add the fresh herbs. Allow to completely cool.
  12. Once the filling in nearly cooled, take your puff pastry sheets out of freezer and allow them to cool down to room temp (40 minutes)
  13. When the pastry sheets have thawed, take one sheet at a time and roll out to be 10″x10″
  14. Cut into 4×5 squares
  15. Place the squares onto parchment paper
  16. Add 1/2 cup beef filling into the center and wet the edges of the filled square with a touch of water

  18. Cut small slits on top to vent
  19. Place in the freezer for 20 minutes
  20. Remove from freezer, brush the pastry with egg and top off with coarse salt
  21. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  22. Allow the pies to cool for 10 minutes before eating
