Beef mince and mushroom pie
Enjoy a hearty beef mince and mushroom pie with rich, savory filling and a flaky golden crust.
Main ingredients:
 | Minced meat – fresh minced beef |
 | Pie crusts – you can use shortbread pie crusts or pastry crusts. I’m using short pie crusts in this recipe. |
 | Tomato sauce or coulis |
 | Fresh mushrooms (eg. white mushrooms or oyster mushrooms). If using frozen mushrooms, add them in at the same time as the minced beef. |
Spices, herbs and ingredients for flavor:
 | Olive oil |
 | Garlic powder |
 | Fresh or dried parsley for herb flavor |
 | Smoked paprika |
 | Pinch of salt and pepper |
Beef mince and mushroom pie is one of those dishes that seems harder to make than it is. But in essence, it is just ground beef and mushrooms are cooked to a juicy goodness, and then baked inside a flaky, golden pastry.
It is the perfect warm comforting dish for a family dinner.
Serve it with some veggies, or a fresh salad for a complete meal. Always a crowd-pleaser!
