Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon — olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon — butter

  • ½ — onion, finely chopped

  • 2 pounds — beef sirloin, cut into cubes

  • 2 cloves — garlic, minced

  • 3 tablespoons — all-purpose flour

  • ½ teaspoon — ground black pepper

  • — salt to taste

  • 1 cup — red wine

  • 2 cups — beef stock

  • 2 large — potatoes, peeled and cubed

  • 1 cup — chopped carrots

  • 1 (8 ounce) can — tomato paste

  • 1 teaspoon — Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 — 10-inch pie crusts, rolled out to fit a 9×13-inch baking dish

  • 2 tablespoons — milk, or as needed

Directions

  • Place a baking sheet on the rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Heat oil and butter together in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion until softened, about 10 minutes. Add beef; cook and stir until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Stir flour, pepper, and salt into beef mixture; cook and stir until beef is coated, 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine; bring to boil, reduce heat, and simmer, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Mix beef stock, potatoes, carrots, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce into beef mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from heat and cool.
  • Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with 1 pie crust. Spoon beef and potato filling into crust; top with remaining pie crust, crimping the 2 crusts together around the edges using a fork or your fingers. Brush top crust with milk.
  • Place baking dish on the baking sheet in the oven and cook until crust is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes.
