WHAT YOU NEED
2 x Portions of Ox Cheek
2 x Medium Onions
1 x Ready to Roll Puff Pastry
1 x Bottle of Hobgoblin Ruby Ale
3-4 Button Mushrooms (Sliced)
Salt and Pepper to Season.
Cornflour and a little water for thickening
How To Make It.
Dice the Ox Cheek portions into mouth sized chunks. Roughly chop the onions into decent sizes that will hold the shape when cooked.
Into a pan add a little oil and brown off the chunks of meat. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook them down slowly, then add the Ale, simmer slowly for about half an hour. allowing the chunks of meat to cook slowly in the Ale. Add seasoning.
At this point i added a little cornflour in some water to aid the thickening and continued to reduce the liquid so that the sauce was just right mixture for the pie.
Roll out the puff pastry to fit your pie tin, add the pie mixture to the tin and place the pastry on top. place in the oven on medium heat until the pastry has risen and cooked.
TIP!!
Ox Cheek can be tough to cut ensure you have sharp knives, also if you want a shiney pie crust prepare an egg wash and apply before it goes into the oven.
