How to Make Beef Red Wine Pies

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6).
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf.
  5. Roll out the puff pastry and cut out circles (approximately 12cm diameter for individual pies, or adjust for a larger pie).
  6. Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each pastry circle.
  7. Top with a thin slice of red onion.
  8. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg.
  9. Fold the pastry over the filling to form a half-moon shape, crimping the edges to seal.
  10. Place the pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  11. 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.
  12. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
