• In an ovenproof deep dish, pour the stew in carefully and top with remaining grated cheddar cheese but do not mix in.
• Place the pastry over the top of the pie dish, fold any overhanging edges back over the top edge or cut the excess off.
• Brush the puff pastry top with the beaten egg wash.
• Then continue to bake the steak and Guinness pie on the bottom shelf of the oven for an additional 30 - 45 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden.

Return to the oven and cook for 1 hour more. If it remains thin, set the pan over medium-low heat, remove the lid and reduce the liquid. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If using Cheddar, fold in about half.

Using a pastry cutter or your hands, quickly work the butter into the dough until it is the texture of coarse meal. Add ice water, a splash at a time, until a firm dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Place the dough between two sheets of plastic wrap and, using a rolling pin, roll to the thickness of a computer mouse pad. Pour the stew into an 8-inch-square, 2-inch-high Pyrex dish or a deep 9-inch pie pan. If using Cheddar, scatter the remaining cheese across the top. Place the dough on top of the pie and pinch it closed around the edges using the tines of a fork, then slash the center lightly with a knife. Brush with the egg yolk, place on a baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes, or until the pastry is puffy and golden.
