Aussie Meat Pie

Cook onion and meat until well browned. Add 3/4 cup of water, stock, cubes, sauces and seasoning. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Blend flour with remaining water to make a smooth paste. Add to the meat and bring to the boil, stirring continuously. Boil for 5 minutes, then leave to cool. Line a lightly greased pie plate or individual dishes with the shortcrust pastry. Spoon in the cooked meat filling. Moisten the edges of pastry base with water. Top with puff pastry, then press down gently to seal the edges, and trim and score the edges. Glaze and bake in a hot oven for 15 minutes, then reduce to moderately hot and cook for a further 25 minutes or until pastry is golden.
