Deep-Filled Steak Slices
The Pastry Shell
2 sheets Ready-Rolled Puff Pastry
1 Large Egg (beaten, for the egg wash)
Filling
400 g Finely Diced Beef Braising Steak
1 Large White Onion (finely chopped)
1 tbsp Plain Flour
250 ml Rich Beef Stock
1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 pinch Sea Salt and Black Pepper

 

Filling Prep: Prepare your filling of choice (Steak or Cheese) according to the guide above. Ensure the mixture is completely cold before assembling.
Cut Pastry: Preheat your oven to 200°C. Lay out your ready-rolled puff pastry sheets and cut each into four equal rectangles.
Fill: Place four rectangles onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Divide your cooled filling equally among the bases, leaving a clean border around the edges. Brush the borders with beaten egg.
Seal: Top with the remaining four pastry rectangles. Press the edges down firmly with a fork to crimp and seal them securely. Score the tops with a sharp knife to let steam escape, and brush the lids with egg wash.
Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes until the pastry is puffed, crisp, and deep golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before packing into your kit bag.
