While watching an English real estate show on Foxtel, I noted that the presenters called into a pub in the Cotswalds and had a "puppy dog pie".
It looked great, and they gave a walk through of how to make it, so I had a go at it.
It had cubed beef- so I used round steak - rolled in flour and browned in some oil.
They finely cubed (really small) veges including leeks, which I didn't have so I used cabbage. The other veges were a potato, carrot and onion.
They added a can of Guinness, which I did't have so I used 2/3 cup of white wine. (The only other fluid came from the veges as they cook)
Combine browned meat, raw veges and wine, then put them in a pie dish (deep one) or divide into individual ones. Put heaps in as the veges reduce during cooking
Top with sheet of puff pastry (no pastry on the bottom)
30 / 40 minutes or so in a low/moderate oven.............. magnificent.
So easy
Can't wait to try my puppy dog pies again !

Yum!
I reckon you could use other meats too, eg chicken. Thanks Rosie
