INSTRUCTIONS

Trim all the excess fat from the meat and cut into largish cubes.  Trim
the kidneys of any sinewy threads and slice into 1/4 inch pieces.  Heat
the oil and butter in a large casserole dish and fry the onions  on a
very high heat until quite dark brown with the sugar. Add the  meat and
seal off the steak and kidney pieces. Season only lightly at  this
stage as the liquids will be reduced later.  Add the stock and beer and
scrape up any sediment from the bottom of  the casserole base. Add the
pinch of herbs and Worcester sauce and  bring the stew to the boil.
Then place the lid on and reduce the heat  to a slow simmer for about 2
hours or until the meat is tender.  Before decanting into the pie dish
it is important for the sauce to  be thick and gooey. This is easily
done by bubbling and reducing the  liquids on a hot hob until the sauce
is dense and syrupy. The gravy  can finally be thickened by stirring
the flour a spoonful at a time  into the gravy, and the resulting gravy
can be recombined with the  cooked meats.  Place the meat and gravy mix
into the dish and lay the rolled out  pastry (1/8 inch thick) on top.
Wet the edge of the dish with the egg  wash - this will prevent gravy
bubbling out and leaking. Poke a thin  cut into the middle of the lid
with a sharp knife to let the steam  escape. Bake in a hot oven,
200C/400F/gas 6 for 30 minutes or so  until the crust has risen and is
golden brown.  Best enjoyed hot.  Converted by MC_Buster.  Converted by
