Meat and Onion Pie

Hearty and warming, this classic Meat and Onion Pie is every pie-lover’s dream! You’ll notice that most of my ground meat recipes use a combination of beef and pork. I find that the fattier, sweeter pork meat enhances the flavor of the beef, meaning you end up with a meat mixture that’s more flavorful, rich and tender.

Obviously, any meat pie has to have a good helping of onion and garlic to make it even tastier, and here I use some extra flavors like mustard powder and sage (both always go great with pork), and thyme and cloves. Using store-bought pie shells makes the whole thing super easy and quick to put together – you can have the whole thing ready in under an hour!

So, how to make Meat and Onion Pie?

Steps to make Meat and Onion Pie

1	Heat the oven	1
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2	Cook the potato	5
Add the chopped potato to a pan and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil, then cook for about 5 minutes until the potato is tender.
3	Mash the potato	1
Drain the potatoes. Mash them well, until all lumps have been removed, and put to one side.
4	Add the meat and seasonings to a pan	1
While the potato is cooking, you can start preparing the meat. Place a large pot over a medium heat. Add the beef and pork, along with the mustard powder, garlic, onion, thyme, cloves, sage, pepper, and salt. Pour over the water.
5	Cook the meat	8
Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring constantly to ensure the mixture is well combined, until the meat is browned all over.
6	Add the mashed potato	1
Take the pan off the heat and stir in the potato.
7	Fill the pie	2
Place one of the pie shells into a pie dish or plate. Spoon in the meat mixture, and then place the second pie crust on top.
8	Prepare the pie for baking	1
Use a fork to prick the top shell a couple of times, to allow steam to escape. Crimp the edges of the pie shell using a fork and trim any excess dough. Use aluminum foil to cover the very edges of the pie crust, so that it doesn’t burn.
9	Bake the pie	25
Bake for 25 minutes, until the crust has turned a golden brown.
10	Serving Meat and Onion Pie
Serve the pie on its own or with a thick beef gravy ladled over.

Serve this tasty Meat and Onion Pie with a good coating of rich gravy and a side of buttery mashed potatoes, absolutely classic! What do you think of my simple but delicious pie recipe? Have a go and don’t forget to tag #cookmerecipes in your pie posts!
