Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 200˚C. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 2 mins or until the onion softens. Add the carrot and celery. Season. Cook for a further 2-3 mins or until the vegetables are tender. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a heatproof bowl.
  2. Step 2

    Return the pan to the heat. Add the mince. Season. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up lumps, for 5-6 mins, or until the mince changes colour.
  3. Step 3

    Add the tomato paste, Vegemite, Worcestershire sauce, cornflour and beef stock to the pan. Stir to combine. Bring the mince mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 4-5 mins or until the mixture has thickened slightly.
  4. Step 4

    Return the vegetable mixture to the pan and stir to combine. Spoon the mixture into a 22cm x 30cm ovenproof dish. Allow the mince mixture to cool slightly. Top with the puff pastry. Brush the pastry with egg. Use a knife to cut a hole in the centre of the pastry to allow steam to escape while the pie is cooking. Bake for 25-30 mins or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
  5. Step 5

    Divide the pie among serving plates. Serve with peas and tomato sauce.
