Best Corned Beef Pasties Recipes

CORNED BEEF PASTIES

Steps:

• Peel and cut up potatoes and boil until soft.
• Finely dice them and finely dice the corned beef.
• Heat the butter in a frying pan until melted and add the corned beef and potato. Warm through for 5-10 mins and then mash up. (Roughly. You do not need it completely smooth! Can leave it as a chunky as preferred)
• Add salt and pepper and leave to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 200degrees.
• Roll out the pastry to approx 2mm thickness.
• Cut around a small side plate or saucer (approx 6").
• Fill one half of the circle with the mixture leaving a margin around the edge.
• With a pastry brush paint egg around the margin and close the pasty by folding the other half of the circle over.
• Seal shut by crimping (pushing down with your finger tips) all the way around the edges.
• Place the finished pasty on a lined baking tray and brush the top with more egg.
• NB: You do not need to prick holes.
• I have been told you can't re-roll puff pastry, but I can't see waste, so I did and it all turned out fine! So, repeat as many times as you can and then scrunch all your leftovers together, re-roll and cut out as many more as you can! I managed 10, depending on the size of your cut outs you may get more or less.
• Bake until golden brown (approx 20 mins) and then leave to cool on a wire rack.
• These are just as yummy cold the next day as they are warm, fresh from the oven!
