Ingredients

1 lb all-purpose flour
1/2 lb suet
1/2 lb ground beef
1 large potato diced
1 onion chopped
1 carrot diced
Salt and pepper to taste
Jam or fruit compote of your choice
1 egg beaten (for glazing)

Method

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, mix the flour and suet together with a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and mix until you have a soft dough. Divide the dough into four portions.
Roll out each portion of dough into a rectangular shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
On one half of each rectangle, place a layer of ground beef, potatoes, onions, and carrots. Season with salt and pepper.
On the other half of each rectangle, spread a layer of jam or fruit compote.
Fold the dough over the fillings to create a long sausage shape. Pinch the edges to seal.
Place the clangers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with beaten egg.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through.
Serve hot and enjoy.
