Ole Mexican Beef Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef, bell pepper and onion over medium-high heat 8 to 10 minutes or until beef is browned and vegetables are softened; drain. Wipe out skillet. Return beef mixture to pan; add taco seasoning mix and water. Cook and stir over medium-high heat 1 to 2 minutes or until well mixed. Remove from heat. Cool 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix milk and egg. Stir in cheese. Stir beef mixture into egg mixture, then pour into pie plate. Spread evenly.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Warm the cumin seeds in a large pan and toast for a few secs. Tip the salsa into the pan, then stir in the mince, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Crumble in the stock cube, tip in the beans with their juice and add a little less than a can of water. Season, then part-cover and simmer for 40 mins, stirring occasionally. If there is still a lot of liquid after 30 mins, remove the lid completely and allow it to reduce a little until thickened.
• Meanwhile, boil the potatoes until tender, then drain and mash with the butter and seasoning. Spoon the mince into an ovenproof dish and top with the potato, smoothing to cover the meat completely. Mix the cheese with the tortillas, then scatter on top of the pie and bake for 10 mins to melt the cheese - take care that the tortillas don't burn.
