👨‍🍳 Preparación

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C and lightly grease a small round pie tin (about 10 cm diameter).

  2. 2

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add chopped onion and sauté for 3 minutes until soft and translucent.

  3. 3

    Add minced beef to the pan, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and brown for 5 minutes until no pink remains.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle the flour over the meat and stir for 1 minute, then pour in the beef stock, Worcestershire sauce and ketchup, season with salt and pepper, and simmer for 6-8 minutes until the mixture thickens into a rich gravy.

  5. 5

    Roll out two-thirds of the puff pastry and line the pie tin, trimming the excess edges, then spoon the cooled meat filling into the pastry case.

  6. 6

    Roll out the remaining pastry to form a lid, place it over the filling, press the edges firmly to seal and crimp with a fork.

  7. 7

    Cut a small steam slit in the center of the lid, brush the top generously with beaten egg yolk for a golden finish.

  8. 8

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the pastry is puffed, crisp and deep golden brown.

  9. 9

    Remove from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, then serve hot, traditionally accompanied by tomato sauce (ketchup) on the side.
