Beef Cheese Pot Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the butter with the olive oil in a heavy pot. Sear the meat over medium-high heat in batches until brown, 4 to 5 minutes; remove to a plate.
• Add the carrots, celery and shallots and saute until the vegetables start to wilt, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low, add the mustard, garlic and 1 tablespoon of the flour and saute for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the wine, beef broth and 1 cup water. Add salt and pepper to taste and stir. Bring to a boil. Return the browned meat to the pot and reduce the heat to low. Add the bay leaves and thyme sprigs, then cover and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes.
• After 45 minutes, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons flour with a little water and pour into the stew. Cook and thicken for 10 more minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets one by one to get rid of the creases. Set a 6- to 8-inch ovensafe skillet upside down on a pastry sheet and cut a circle around it, making it 1/2 inch larger than the dish. Repeat with the remaining 5 skillets using all of the pastry sheets; discard the scraps.
• Put the 6 skillets onto 2 baking sheets and fill the skillets with the cooled beef mixture. Sprinkle over some chopped bacon and 1/2 teaspoon chopped parsley on each.
• Top each skillet with a pastry circle, pressing along the edges to seal. Mix together the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to make an egg wash. Brush each pastry lid with the egg wash. Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• For the cheesesteak filling: Saute the onions and peppers in the oil until translucent, and then remove from the pan. Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook until well browned. Return the peppers and onions to the pan along with the beef. Cook the beef, chopping up with a wooden spoon, until just cooked through. Season with salt, remove from the heat and spread out on a baking sheet to chill.
• For the cheesesteak sauce: Combine the milk and cream and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the cheeses until thoroughly melted and well mixed. Set aside until ready to use.
• For serving: For each serving, heat 8 ounces of the steak and vegetable mixture in a saute pan. Add 4 to 5 ounces of the sauce and bring to a simmer. Cook until heated through very well and the sauce has started to reduce. Once hot, pour into bowls and top with the rounds of baked puff pastry.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F.
• Saute beef and onion in oil until beef is cooked, about 3-6 minutes.
• Boil about 7 cups water in a medium pot, add potatoes and carrots and boil 5 minutes (for firmer veggies, boil 3-4 minutes).
• Drain.
• Whisk soup and milk together, and pour over veggies.
• Bring to a simmer for 2-3 minutes.
• Add meat and onion.
• Stir well.
• Pour mixture into a 9" deep dish pie pan.
• Cut pie crust to fit top, and press edges into the rim of the pan.
• Cut 6 two inch diagonal slits cmoing out from the center of the crust.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until crust is nicely browned.
• Let stand 5-10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large skillet, cook bay leaf, oregano, onions and mushrooms in olive oil until soft. Stir in garlic, carrots, celery, potatoes, and meat.
• Cook and stir for 10 minutes, or until meat starts to brown. Pour in wine. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to simmer. Simmer for 35 to 45 minutes.
• Place in pie dish, sprinkle with parsley, and cover with pastry. Brush with egg whites.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• First, make the pastry. Put the flour, mustard powder, ½ tsp salt, the lard and butter in a food processor and pulse until combined. Add 1 egg and pulse again. Add 1 tbsp cold water, if needed, until it forms a short pastry. Knead quickly into a ball, then wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 mins. Can be made three days ahead or frozen for two months.
• Season the steak generously and toss with the flour and mustard powder. Heat half the oil in a large pan. Brown the meat in a few batches, adding more oil as you need to and making sure you don't overcrowd the pan. Turn the meat only when the underside has a nice dark crust. Transfer the chunks to a plate as you go.
• Add the bacon to the pan and fry until beginning to crisp. Tip in the carrots, onions and bay leaves and cook for another few mins until the veg is soft. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and tomato purée for 1 min, scraping the tasty bits from the bottom of the pan, then add the stock, thyme and browned beef. Season, cover the pan and simmer gently for 2½ hrs, stirring now and again to prevent the sauce from sticking, until the beef is tender. Remove the lid for the last 30 mins to thicken the sauce. Alternatively, braise in the oven at 160C/140C fan/gas 3 for the same amount of time. Leave to cool. Can be chilled for up to three days, or frozen for two months.
• Transfer the beef to a pie dish and crumble the cheese over the top. Place the marrowbone in the centre, nestling it into the meat. Alternatively, use a pie funnel or piping nozzle. Roll out the pastry on a floured worktop until large enough to cover the pie and about ½cm thick. Brush the remaining beaten egg over the edges of the pie dish, drape the pastry over, trim the excess and pinch around the edge to seal. Cut a hole for the marrowbone or pie funnel to poke through, and brush the top all over with beaten egg. Use the pastry trimmings to decorate the pie however you like. Chill for about 30 mins while you heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
• If you have any beaten egg left, give the pie a final brush for extra glossiness. Bake for 45-50 mins until the pastry is deep golden.
