1 tablespoon olive oil
2 medium (300g) brown onions, chopped finely
500g beef mince
200g button mushrooms, sliced finely
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup powdered gravy mix
1 cup (250ml) water
1 sheet (29cm x 29cm) ready-rolled shortcrust quiche pastry
1 egg, beaten lightly
1 sheet butter puff pastry

METHOD
1. Heat oil in a large frying pan; cook onions, stirring, until soft. Add mince, cook, stirring with a fork to break up lumps, until changed in colour; stir in mushrooms. Add paste, sauce, gravy mix and water. Bring mixture to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, for about 10 minutes or until mixture is thick; cool.

Brush rim of pastry with beaten egg, top with puff pastry sheet, pressing edges to seal. Trim excess pastry, brush with egg mixture.
