Toss the beef with salt and black pepper.
Sear the beef in batches in butter.
Chop the onions, mushrooms, and carrot, then soften them in the same pot for 8 minutes.
Add the flour and tomato paste, and fry for 2 minutes.
Add the ale, stock, and Worcestershire sauce, then return the beef to the pot.
Cook the filling over low heat until the beef is tender.
Transfer the filling to a baking dish, cover with puff pastry, and brush with beaten egg.
Bake the pastry-topped beef at 200°C until the pastry rises and browns.
💡 Tip: Fully tenderizing the beef before covering it with pastry gives a balanced filling during the short bake.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with mashed potatoes, peas, and extra gravy.
