This Beef and Mushroom Pie Recipe is Pure Pie-fection!
This beef pie with mushrooms recipe elevates humble ingredients into a show-stopping dish. A succulent beef roasting joint is slow-cooked to tender perfection, then combined with whole button mushrooms in a rich, savoury gravy. The beef is first seared in olive oil to lock in the flavour, then simmered in water enriched with beef gravy granules, creating a thick, delicious sauce. The crowning glory of this brilliant beef pie recipe is a gorgeously golden, flaky puff pastry crust.
Traditionally served with chunky chips and peas, this beef pie with mushrooms dish is comfort food at its finest. For variations, try swapping the button mushrooms for a mix of wild mushrooms, or add a splash of ale to the gravy for extra depth. You can even swap the chips for creamy, buttery mashed potatoes and sub the peas for honey-glazed carrots.
Our incredible beef and mushroom pie recipe is a true British pub grub favourite, and if you’re looking for more traditional dishes, how about a sensational slow-roast shoulder of pork with scrumpy and apple sauce, the all-time classic lager-battered fish and chips with minty mushy peas, and Michelin marvel Michel Roux’s best shepherd’s pie. Bon appetit!
