Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until softened. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the frozen peas and carrots, beef broth, tomato paste, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let it simmer for 10 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer the beef and potato mixture to a pie dish. Roll out the puff pastry and place it over the filling. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges. Brush the top with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and flaky. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Make Ahead: Prepare the filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Assemble and bake when ready. Customize: Add your favorite vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers for extra flavor. Crust Variation: Use a homemade pie crust or store-bought for convenience.
