Instructions

  9. Return the beef to the pan, cover, and let simmer for 20-25 minutes until the beef is tender.
  10. Stir in frozen peas and remove from heat.
  11. Step 2: Assembling the Pot Pie
  12. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  13. Pour the beef filling into a greased pie dish.
  14. Roll out the pie crust and place it over the filling, crimping the edges to seal.
  15. Brush the crust with a beaten egg for a golden finish.
  16. Cut a few small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
  17. Step 3: Baking the Pot Pie
  18. Place the pie dish on a baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  19. Let the pie rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
