Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  2. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat and brown the beef cubes. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add butter and sauté onions, garlic, carrots, and potatoes until onions are translucent.
  4. Stir in flour and cook for 2 minutes. Gradually add beef broth and milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
  5. Return beef to the pot. Add peas, salt, pepper, thyme, and bay leaf. Simmer for 20 minutes until the mixture thickens.
  6. Transfer the beef mixture to a baking dish. Roll out puff pastry and cover the dish, sealing the edges.
  7. Brush the pastry with beaten egg. Cut a few slits on top to allow steam to escape.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
  9. Remove from oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.
