How to Make Beef Red Wine Pies
- Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6).
- Prepare the beef filling: In a large pan, brown the beef in the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and cook until softened.
- Stir in the red wine, beef stock, thyme, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced and thickened slightly.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf.
- Roll out the puff pastry and cut out circles (approximately 12cm diameter for individual pies, or adjust for a larger pie).
- Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each pastry circle.
- Top with a thin slice of red onion.
- Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg.
- Fold the pastry over the filling to form a half-moon shape, crimping the edges to seal.
- Place the pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes for individual pies, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. For a larger pie, bake for 35-45 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
