Galbi Steak Pie

갈비 스테이크 파이

Steak pies are everywhere in Britain, and I have grown to relish these dense pastry parcels packed with meat, sometimes eaten cold. So I created this Galbi version that is a cross between American pot pies and the English pies I have had in London. It turned out so well – a richer, thicker, more savoury version of Galbijjim, a Korean short rib stew, kicked up with Guinness beer!

Galbi Steak Pie

Ingredients

Serves 2-4

  • 700g (1lb 9oz) short ribs of beef, cut into 2.5cm (1 in) cubes
  • 50g (2oz) plain flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 25g (1oz) butter
  • vegetable oil
  • 2 medium onions, cut into 3cm (1 ¼ in) dice
  • 1 tsp ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp garlic, grated
  • 150ml (5fl oz) Guinness beer
  • 120ml (4fl oz) soy sauce
  • 3 Tbsp mirin
  • 1 Tbsp roasted sesame oil
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 300ml (10fl oz) beef stock
  • 185g (6 ½ oz) baby potatoes 
  • 2 large carrots, peeled, halved lengthways and cut into half moons
  • 175g (6oz) mixed mushrooms, trimmed and halved if large
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 275g (10oz) puff pastry
  • sea salt

Method

Dust the steak cubes in the flour and set aside.

In a heavy-based pan set over medium–high heat, melt the butter and add a drizzle of oil. Add the onions, ginger and garlic and cook until softened and lightly golden brown. Place the steak in the pan and sear on all sides until browned. Drain any excess oil from the pan, and add the Guinness, soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, sugar and beef stock. Bring to the boil. Add the potatoes, carrots and mushrooms, lower the heat to a simmer and cook for a further 1 1⁄2 hours until the meat is very tender. Add the black pepper and season with salt to taste. Allow to cool completely.

Preheat the oven to 170°C fan/190°C/375°F/gas 5. Spoon the mixture into a 900ml (1 ¾ pint) dolsot bowl, or another ovenproof dish.

Crack the egg in a small bowl, add a splash of water and beat well to make an egg wash.

Roll out the puff pastry to a 3mm (⅛ in) thick round, about 1cm (½ in) wider than the bowl or dish, moisten rim of dish with the egg wash, and place the pastry on top, sealing the edges well. Cut away any excess pastry and brush with egg wash. If you wish, add any decorative touches with the pastry trimmings and brush with egg wash. Bake for 1– 1 ½ hours until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is hot. Serve immediately.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageFound some old photos from my days as a development chef at @saveurmag. The famed Colman Andrews was the EIC and @jao.vivian was running the test kitchen alongside Melissa Hamilton @canalhouse. I loved testing recipes from all over the world and exploring countries through its food.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageIt was a huge honor to speak @stanford university at their Korean Food Gone Global conference. I learned so much from the prestigious academic panelists and was so inspired by my co-keynote speaker @suyoung_ryu. Ryu is a prolific actor in K-Dramas / Movies and most recently known for his starring role in Bloodhounds. As his “side gig”, he is passionate about food and has a viral cooking show— he is getting Korean men into the kitchen learning how to cook!  What a feat!  He also focuses on creating simple meals on a budget, accessible to everyone.

At the conference I spoke about my personal journey into the kitchen and the rise of the Korean “Hallyu” wave. 
It was such an honor to share my views and story with the Stanford community.  Thank you for having me. 🙏🙏

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageHad a fabulous time @jonesroadbeauty at their flagship store in NYC @jonesroadbeautyflagship where I got a fabulous makeover for a completely fabulous no-makeup makeup look.  My make up artist @floby1 matched my colors perfectly and i walked out of the store feeling gorgeous!  I am in love with the tinted foundation cream and miracle balm— which I use on my lips and cheeks. So easy. I’m always in a rush so I like that everything can also be applied with your fingers and you don’t have to bother with brushes. 
Thank you Jones Road and @justbobbidotcom for having me!
