Ingredients 

 Filling

1.5kg  Organic Chuck beef, cut into 4cm pieces.

6 Hagen's Bacon rashes, rind removed and diced 

1 White onion, diced 

35g Plain flour 

1tbsp Tomato paste 

2 Garlic cloves, crushed 

125ml Lighter style red wine (pinot noir)

500ml House-Made chicken stock 

500ml House-Made beef stock 

200ml Boiling water 

5 Rosemary sprigs 

200g Swiss brown mushrooms, halved 

 

Short Crust Pastry 

200g Butter

2 cups Plain flour 

1 Egg yolk

1/2 cup Chilled water 

 

Method

1. Heat half the olive oil in a casserole pan over medium heat, add onion and stir until tender (15-20min). Remove from pan and set aside 

2. Heat remaining oil in casserole to medium-high and brown beef in batches (4-5mins), then set aside. Add flour to the pan and stir until toasted (1-2mins), then add tomato paste and stir to combine. Return onion to pan on medium heat with beef and garlic, then deglaze with wine. Add stocks, water and rosemary sprigs, bring to the boil, season to taste, then cover. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer covered with lid until tender enough to cut easily, but not falling apart (2 hours). Remove beef, discard rosemary sprigs, then reduce liquid over medium heat until thickened (45 - 60 mins). Meanwhile, cut beef into 1cm pieces or shred. 

3. Cook bacon and mushrooms in large non-stick frying pan over medium heat until golden (10 - 15mins). Stir into beef mixture and set aside to cool.

4. For short crust pastry, process flour, butter and 1tsp salt in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Add egg yolk then 50-100ml water and process until dough just comes together. Adjust water amount until shaggy dough forms. Turn onto a lightly floured bench, work and shape into a disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate until rested (1 hour).

5. Preheat oven to 200c. Fill pie dish with the filling (until just below then rim). Roll out pastry and place over the pie dish. Cut away excess pastry and brush with an egg wash. Place in the oven for 30minutes or until pastry is golden brown. Serve!
