Notes

Substitute veal or beef kidney with lamb, if you prefer.

  • To season and coat the meat, place kidney, meat, flour, salt and pepper into a plastic bag, close and shake a few times. The meat will be coated and seasoned to perfection.
  • Pour the remaining gravy into a sauce bowl.
  • Make individual steak, Guiness and kidney pies with the same filling but double the pastry and cut a pie bottom and a top.

If you don't have it, substitute Guinness with your favorite stout, or your favorite beer.

Remarkable

True pub fare, if any, but easy to prepare at home. You will find any steak and kidney pie flavorful and comforting in winter, and this recipe with the Guinness touch more so.
