Well I like a man who cooks well. Or just cooks. At least he has tried.

I have just eaten an apple. Boring. I prefer the sound of the steak & ale pie. With creamy mashed taties...

[stewey]

I always thought that steaks grew on animals: how can you make a steak at home?

[bigmamma]

Welll here we are then
as youve insisted


1 kg braising steak
500 ml Hobgoblin ale
500 ml water 3 beef stock cubes
2 1/2 heaped tbsp plain flour
2 large onions
Cooking oil or beef dripping
2 heaped tsp Dijon mustard
Ready made puff pastry (ready rolled preferably, for less work)


So the method folks is .....


Peel and chop the onions. Cut up the braising steak into small cubes.
Heat some oil in a large and deep saucepan. Add the onions and saut� gently for about five minutes until soft.
Add the meat and cook to seal.
Add the flour and stir in to meat juices.
Continue to cook to cook out the flour, adding the beer gradually to prevent sticking to the pan until all the beer has been added.
Add beef stock cubes and stir until dissolved.
Add water to thin down the gravy. The amount will vary according to how much juice has come out of the meat so add gradually until the right consistency is achieved.
Add Dijon mustard (English mustard can be used if preferred).
Once boiling reduce the heat, cover and simmer very gently for at least two hours.
Once cooked, cut your pre-prepared pastry into rounds or squares (the shape and decoration is down to your imagination) and bake for approximately 10 minutes on a tray.

To serve your Steak and Ale Pie ladle the meat and gravy on to each plate and top with pastry.

Great with creamy mashed potatoes and baby carrots and peas.
