This homemade beef pot pie features tender chunks of beef, carrots, potatoes, and peas in a rich and flavorful sauce, all baked inside a flaky and buttery pie crust. It is the perfect comforting dish for a cozy dinner with family and friends.

Ingredients

• 1 lb beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1 cup diced carrots
• 1 cup diced potatoes
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1/2 cup diced onions
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 2 pie crusts, store-bought or homemade

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic, and cook until softened.
3. Add the beef stew meat to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides. Transfer the meat to a plate and set aside.
4. Add the carrots, potatoes, peas, flour, thyme, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to coat the vegetables with flour.
5. Pour in the beef broth, milk, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens into a gravy-like consistency.
6. Return the beef to the skillet and stir it into the vegetable mixture. Cook for another 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
7. Roll out one pie crust and place it in a greased 9-inch pie dish. Pour the beef and vegetable filling into the crust.
8. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Trim any excess crust and crimp the edges to seal the pie.
9. Make a few small slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
10. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
11. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
12. Slice and serve the delicious homemade beef pot pie.
