Instructions
- Combine the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl.

- In a separate bowl, beat together the egg yolk and water.
- Stir in the egg mixture until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth.
- Wrap the pastry in cling film and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan)/350°F/gas mark 4.
- Heat some olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the onions and garlic until softened.
- Add the diced beef to the pan and fry until browned all over.
- Mix in the diced potatoes, tomato puree, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Pour in the beef stock, bring to a boil, then simmer for 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens.
- Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to about 3mm thickness.
- Use a large cookie cutter or pastry cutter to cut out rounds of pastry.
- Spoon some filling into the centre of each round of pastry.
- Brush the edges of the pastry with a little water and fold over to enclose the filling.
- Press the edges of the pastry together using a fork to create a crimped edge.
- Place the pies on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the pastry turns golden brown and crispy.
Notes
- You can make the filling ahead of time and store it in the fridge until needed.
- If you don't have a large cookie cutter or pastry cutter, you can use a small bowl or cup to cut out the pastry rounds.
