Product description
Made with juicy British steak that is pan-fried and added to a tasty medley of slow cooked onions, cracked black pepper, herbs and spices. A good hearty stout gives the gravy an added richness and it's all simmered together for hours, until the steak is tender and succulent. To finish the pie, a generous helping of blue Stilton is crumbled into the mix, melting to create a further layer of flavour. It's generously filled into a delicate shortcrust pastry base and topped with a crisp, flaky puff pastry before being hand-crimped by skilled bakers.A striking twist on the classic steak pie.
