Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 180C.
Heat oil in a large frypan and add onion, bacon and spices. Turn until onion starts to turn translucent.
Add beef mince and peas and continue to turn until the meat is browned. Break down any big chunks of meat.
Mix through the gravy and cold water mixture and simmer for 5-10 minutes on low heat. Take off the heat and allow to cool.
Spray a large pie pan with canola oil and line with one sheet of pastry.
If using cheese, sprinkle it over the pastry and top with a second sheet of pastry.
Put the meat mix into the pan and cover with the last sheet of pastry.
Turn up the over-hanging pastry corners, back over the pan.
Place the pie pan in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes.
