Cooking Instructions:
1. Heat olive oil and butter in a pan, add shallots and cook gently until brown. Reduce heat, add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes.
2. Stir in tomato purae, lentils, flat and chestnut mushrooms. Turn up heat and cook for 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the brown ale and 100ml of the stock. Cover, bring to the boil and simmer for 30 mins.
4. Soak the porcini mushrooms in 200ml warm water for 20 minutes, drain (reserving the soaking liquor) and chop roughly. Add both the porcini and the soaking liquor to the pan.
5. Simmer for a further 10 minutes, using the remaining stock or the Cornflour and butter paste to adjust the consistency until a thick gravy-like pie filling is achieved. Stir through the baby spinach, and spoon the mixture into individual pie dishes. Brush the edges with beaten egg and cover with rolled puff pastry. Brush the pie tops with puff pastry and bake in a preheated oven at 180oC for 20 minutes or until pastry tops are golden and well risen. Serve immediately.
