Ingredients

1.5 lbs beef, cubed
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, diced
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 cup beef broth
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
1 sheet of store-bought puff pastry
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
Heat the vegetable oil in a large oven-safe pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and brown it on all sides. Remove from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the onion and garlic. Cook until softened and translucent.
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, and cinnamon. Stir to coat the onions and garlic with the spices.
Return the beef to the pot and add the beef broth, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
Cover the pot and transfer it to the preheated oven. Braise for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and falling apart.
Remove the pot from the oven and increase the oven temperature to 400°F (204°C).
Transfer the beef mixture to a baking dish. Roll out the puff pastry sheet and cover the dish with it, trimming any excess pastry.
Brush the puff pastry with the beaten egg to create a golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
