Cornish pasty
Cornish pasty
Cornish pasty is a traditional dish originating from Cornwall, England. It’s a golden, baked pastry filled with a savory mix of diced beef, potatoes, onions, and sometimes other veggies like swede (also known as rutabaga).
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef (skirt steak or sirloin), diced into small cubes
- 1 pound potatoes peeled and diced
- 1/2 pound onion finely chopped
- 1/4 pound swede (rutabaga), peeled and diced (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 pound shortcrust pastry
- 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the diced beef, potatoes, onions, and swede (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Roll out the shortcrust pastry on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch (3 mm). Using a plate or a circular cutter, cut out 8-inch (20 cm) rounds.
- Divide the beef and vegetable mixture equally among the pastry rounds, placing it onto one half of each round, leaving a small border around the edge.
- Fold the other half of the pastry round over the filling to create a semi-circle shape. Pinch and crimp the edges firmly to seal the pasties.
- Place the pasties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops of the pasties with the beaten egg to give them a lovely golden color when baked.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the pasties are golden brown and the filling is cooked through.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the pasties to cool slightly before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
