How to cook it
-
Toss the beef cubes with 2 tablespoons of the flour, salt, and pepper.
-
Heat the oil in a large pot and brown the beef in batches, about 6 minutes, then set aside.
-
Cook the diced onion and carrot in the same pot until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
-
Return the beef to the pot, stir in the tomato paste, then pour in the stout and beef stock.
-
Cover and simmer gently until the beef is fork tender, about 90 minutes, stirring in the peas for the last 5 minutes, then cool.
-
Heat the oven to 400F and line a pie dish with one pie crust, fill with the cooled beef filling, and top with the second crust, sealing and trimming the edges.
-
Brush the top with beaten egg and bake until deeply golden, about 35 minutes.
