A savory and hearty meat pie filling made with ground beef, onions, and aromatic herbs, perfect for encasing in pastry for a comforting meal.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 500g ground beef
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 cup frozen peas

Instructions

1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Increase heat to medium-high and add ground beef. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir to combine, cooking for 1 minute.
5. Pour in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
6. Stir in frozen peas and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool before using as pie filling.

Tips

• Cool the filling completely before assembling the pie to prevent a soggy crust.
• This filling can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
• For a richer flavor, substitute half the beef with ground pork or lamb.
