This is a beef version of the more typical individual pies of lamb mince, vegetables and onion. This is typically served as a main course dish, accompanied by steamed seasonal vegetables.

Ingredients:

500g (1lb) lean minced (ground) beef
2 onions, peeled and sliced
1 potato, peeled and cut into small cubes
2 carrots, peeled and finely diced
2 bay leaves

For the Pie:
2 tbsp gravy granules mixed together with 300ml (1 1/4 cups) boiling water
3tbsp fresh mixed herbs e.g. rosemary, parsley and sage, chopped
1 courgette, chopped
500g shortcrust pastry (home-made or shop bought)
plain flour for dusting
egg beaten with 2 tbsp milk, to glaze

Method:

Pre-heat your oven to 200ºC (180ºC fan/350ºF/Gas Mark 4-5).

In a non-stick pan dry fry the beef with the onion and potato for 4-5 minutes until browned. Add the carrots, bay leaves, seasoning, gravy granules, water, herbs and courgette. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.

Cut the pastry into 4 equal-sized pieces and roll each one out to create 4 rough lids.

Divide the mince mixture between 4 individual pie dishes and top with the lids, trimming off any excess. Sit on a baking tray and brush each pie all over with egg.

Cook in a pre-heated oven for approximately 30 minutes, until golden brown.

Serve with steamed seasonal greens.
