Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 500 grams Beef sirloin steak
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Gluten-free flour
• 1 cup Beef stock
• 1 cup Coconut milk (unsweetened)
• 1.5 cups Dairy-free cheese (shredded)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 sheet Frozen puff pastry (dairy-free, thawed)
• 2 tablespoons Plant-based milk (for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Season the steak with salt and black pepper. Sear the steak on both sides until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Sprinkle the gluten-free flour over the onion and garlic. Stir well to coat and cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 6

Slowly pour in the beef stock, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Allow it to simmer for 3-4 minutes until thickened.

Step 7

Stir in the coconut milk, shredded dairy-free cheese, and thyme. Cook until the cheese has melted and the mixture is creamy.

Step 8

Slice the seared steak thinly against the grain and add it to the cheese sauce. Stir to combine, then remove from heat.

Step 9

Roll out the thawed dairy-free puff pastry to fit your pie dish. Line the bottom of the dish with the pastry, trimming any excess.

Step 10

Spoon the steak and cheese filling into the pie dish, spreading it evenly.

Step 11

Place another sheet of puff pastry over the top of the pie, sealing the edges by crimping with a fork. Trim excess pastry.

Step 12

Brush the top of the pastry with plant-based milk to encourage browning.

Step 13

Use a knife to make a few small slits in the center of the pie to allow steam to escape.

Step 14

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and flaky.

Step 15

Let the pie rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
