Instructions
Step 1
Toss the beef and 1 tbsp flour together. Heat 2 tbsps oil in an oven safe skillet to high temperature. Sear the beef 3-4 minutes to brown then remove to a plate. Reduce heat to medium, add 1 tbsp of oil then add the onions, carrots and mushrooms. Cook 2 minutes then add the garlic, bay leaves, thyme, tomato paste and 1 tbsp flour. Stir together for 1 minute. Return the beef to the skillet, add 3/4 of the Guinness, broth and Worcestershire sauce. Put the balance of the Guinness aside for now. Bring the stew to a boil, then cover loosely with foil and place in a 350°F oven for 1 1/2 - 2 hours. After 1 hour see if the stew needs the rest of the Guinness. If it doesn't, then have a sip or two and relax for another hour. After that time if the stew needs thickening whisk the cornstarch and water together and mix in, boil 1 minute. Add salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaves. Roll out the pie dough and line a 10" pie plate. Beat the egg and brush the dough with it from the edge right to the center. Fill with the stew then lay the puff pastry on top, cut to fit and seal the edges with a fork. Cut a few air vents in the top, brush with beaten egg and add a few grinds of fresh cracked pepper to the top, then bake in a 400°F oven for 35 minutes.
Step 2
Ideally served with colcannon potatoes but a nice garlic mashed potato will do as well.
