 1 Pkt of Puff Pastry
 1 Egg beaten
1

Add the flour, garlic granules and S&P to a plate. Stir through till combined.

2

Take the stewing beef out of the fridge and pat dry with kitchen roll. Cut into 1"sq pieces if it's not already done and add to the plate of flour

3

Toss the beef in the flour till it's coated

4

Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan on a med/high heat and add the beef

5

Fry till the beef has coloured and seared but not cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside

6

Heat the remaining oil in the pan and add the sliced onion

7

Fry till soft and caramelised

8

Add the mushrooms and garlic and fry till soft

9

Add the onions to the slow cooker along with the mushrooms, carrots,herbs,mustard and stock

10

Add the beef. Put the lid on and cook for 6-8hrs on low.

11

Once cooked, remove from the slow cooker and add the pie filling to a deep pie dish or individual dishes.

12

Allow to cool

13

Meanwhile roll out the puff pastry and cut to the size of your pie dishes, fold it over and roll out again.

14

Brush the pastry with the beaten egg. Chill in the fridge for 15-30 mns

15

Heat the oven to 200°c and bake the pastry for 20mns or till it has risen and golden.

16

Carefully slide the pastry casing onto the filled pie dishes and cook for a further 10mns

17

Serve hot.Spoon over any remaining gravy and serve with buttered New Potatoes and mixed veg.

18

You can add the pastry directly onto the pie filling and bake but I prefer to bake it blind so the pastry isn't soggy.

19

I've added veg to bulk out the pie but this is optional.
You can also add lentils to bulk it out furtherl
Add sausages to bulk it out too.
