INGREDIENTS
- 350g of Tender Steak (choose your favourite cut)
- 1/2 of a Fresh Onion
- 1 Green Chilli
- 1 Teaspoon of Garlic
- 1 Teaspoon of Mixed Herbs
- 1 Teaspoon of Steak & Chops Seasoning
- 1 Teaspoon of Black Pepper
- 1/2 Teaspoon of Salt
- 2 Tablespoons of Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 Teaspoons of Gravy Powder
- 150 ml of Water
- A handful of Fresh Parsley
METHOD
- Start by cutting your tender steak into bite-sized pieces. Remember, the better the cut, the tastier your filling.
- Chop up the onion and green chilli finely. They’ll bring some lovely texture and flavour to your filling.
- Heat up a pan over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil, and when it’s sizzling, toss in your steak pieces. Cook until they’re beautifully browned and set them aside.
- In the same pan, sauté your chopped onion, green chilli, and garlic until they turn soft and fragrant.
- Sprinkle in your mixed herbs, steak & chops seasoning, zesty black pepper, and just the right amount of salt. Let those flavours mingle for a minute or two.
- Now, it’s time to add the Worcestershire sauce, giving your filling that rich, savoury depth.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the gravy powder and water until it forms a smooth paste. Pour this into the pan, stirring constantly until your filling thickens up nicely.
- Reintroduce the seared steak to the mix. Let everything simmer together for a few minutes to ensure all those flavours blend harmoniously.
- Finish with a generous handful of fresh parsley for a burst of colour and flavour.
- Allow your Pepper Steak Pie Filling to cool slightly before using it to fill your mini pies or your big, comforting pie
