   Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned.

   Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and beef stock. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

   Cover the pie with the second sheet of puff pastry. Trim and seal the edges. Cut a small hole in the top to allow steam to escape.
