Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Beef Filling
- In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown on all sides.
- Remove the beef and set aside. In the same pot, add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté until softened.
- Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Return the beef to the pot.
- Pour in the Guinness and beef broth. Add thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2 hours until the beef is tender.
- Stir in frozen peas and remove from heat. Let cool slightly.
Make the Pie Crust
- In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Divide into two disks, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Assemble and Bake the Pie
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface to fit the pie dish.
- Place the rolled dough in the pie dish and fill with the beef mixture.
- Roll out the second disk of dough and place it over the filling. Seal and cut slits for steam.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
