1 recipe pastry for a (10 inch) double crust pie
2 cups thinly sliced potatoes
½ cup sliced onion
½ pound boneless beef round steak, cut into thin strips

GREAT GRANDMA JOHNS' PASTIES



Great Grandma Johns' Pasties image

This recipe originated in Cornwall England, and was adapted by my Great Grandmother Johns. It was originally made for the coal miners and wrapped in butcher paper. The hard pastry shell would keep the juicy contents fresh until the miners were ready to eat. My Grandma would serve with relishes and Coca Cola. If you want to make these more quickly, you can use refrigerated pie crusts instead of the pastry recipe.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup shortening
¼ cup cold water
¾ pound boneless beef sirloin, cubed
1 medium onion, sliced
2 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon dried parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup water, or as needed

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cut in butter with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles bread crumbs. Stir in cold water with a fork until the mixture is able to come together in a ball. Knead a couple of times then divide pastry into two pieces. Pastry may be refrigerated for later use at this time.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half of the pastry into a 10-inch circle.
  • Place half of the potato slices in a line down the center of each circle, leaving at least 1 inch at each end uncovered. Arrange onion slices over the potatoes, and season with salt, pepper and some of the dried parsley. Place half of the beef cubes over each onion layer, then season again with salt, pepper and dried parsley. Fold the edges over the pastry over the filling, and tuck in the ends.
  • Transfer the two pastries to a greased baking sheet, and cut a few slits in the top of each one for ventilation.
  • Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from the oven, and reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spoon 1 teaspoon of water into each slit on the tops of the pasties. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve whole, or cut into halves.

PASTIES



Pasties image

My mum made the best pasties on earth, but she's gone so I had to make them today from my memories. Pasties were a food we ate when we were poor, so there wasn't much meat in them compared to veg. Swede turnip is very important in pasties. Mum made her own pastry with dripping, but I don't save dripping!

PASTIES



Pasties image

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h40m

Yield 25 (14-ounce) pasties

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 quarts peeled and diced potatoes
1 1/2 quarts diced carrots
1 quart diced rutabaga
1 quart diced onions
1/4 cup very finely diced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 1/2 pounds ground grass-fed beef
2 1/2 pounds your favorite ground Italian sausage
3 1/2 quarts all-purpose flour (recommended: finely ground organic)
2 tablespoons salt
1 1/2 pounds butter flavored shortening
1 1/2 pounds white shortening
6 eggs
2 cups ice cold water
1/3 cup white vinegar
3 eggs, beaten
Flour, as needed

Steps:

  • For the filling: Add all ingredients for the filling into a large mixing bowl. Push the veggies into the meat until everything is mixed well. All of the veggies should bind together with the meat. If you have any loose veggies hanging out keep mixing and binding. Set aside until ready to build pasties.
  • For the crust: In a separate large mixing bowl, add the flour and salt. Combine together, and then add the 2 types of shortening. Break up the shortening while working it in with the flour. You want to have small, pea size pieces of shortening and flour combined yet not over mixed. In a separate bowl, blend the eggs, water, and vinegar. Add to the flour and mix and fold the contents together, gently pushing the flour and liquid mixture until they are together in a large dough consistency. Pick up the mix and continue to turn it over on top of the liquid and just push it down into the liquid not to over mix the dough. Cover the dough and chill it before rolling.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Take a portion of the dough and lay on a floured counter. Roll out the dough to no more than 1/4- inch thickness. Roll out as big of a sheet as you are comfortable with; we use an 8-inch plate and cut out crusts for each pastie. After cutting the crust, work the scraps back into the next sheets. Do this as many times as it takes to use up all the dough. With a consistent thickness you should get about 25 crusts.
  • Once you have your crusts rolled out you can begin filling. Lay out your crusts and egg wash half of the inside crust. Lay 1 cup of filling in the center of each crust. Fold in half gently, careful not to tear the dough. After folding, use a fork to crimp the crusts. Place pasties on a lined baking sheet, poke fork holes on top to create air pockets, egg wash the top, and place in the oven. Bake until the crust is golden brown and an internal temperature is reached of 160 degrees F.

EASY PANTRY PASTIES



Easy Pantry Pasties image

Another Pantry Challenge recipe - I was craving pasties, but also had leftover commercially prepared pie crusts from the holidays to use up. So I figured out what else I had in my pantry and freezer, and here's what I came up with! They were very tasty, if I say so, myself. :) If you use curry powder, they're like samosas... without, they're like pasties. Both ways are delicious!

Categories     Savory Pies

Time 50m

Yield 8 meat pies, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup diced frozen carrots or 3/4 cup peas and carrots
1 teaspoon butter
1 lb lean ground beef
1/4 cup diced yellow onions or 2 tablespoons minced dried onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (16 ounce) can whole white small potatoes, drained and cut into 1/4 inch cubes or 1 1/4 cups cubed cooked potatoes
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
1/2-1 teaspoon curry powder (optional)
salt and pepper, to taste
4 pie crusts, from store (2 pkgs)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Thaw and partially cook the carrots by microwaving them on high, together with the butter, for 90 seconds; set aside.
  • In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef; when the meat is about halfway cooked, add the onion, garlic, and carrots, and sauté until beef is completely browned, about a total of 7 to 10 minutes; drain drippings, if any.
  • In a bowl, combine the beef mixture, cubed potato, and cheeses (and curry powder, if using), then season to taste with salt and pepper; stir well.
  • Place one of the pie crusts on a lightly-floured board, then mentally imagine the crust divided into 4 equal pieces: place about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the cooked meat mixture in each equal quarter of the crust- make sure to leave about a 1/4 inch aisle beside each mound of mixture (the aisle should basically be the lines which divided the crust into 4 equal pieces, plus the outside edge).
  • Moisten the uncovered"aisles" and outside edge portions of the crust with water or milk, then place another crust over the top of it all and carefully press it down onto the exposed bottom crust areas (the"aisles" and outside edge), making sure that the mounds of meat are covered by crust.
  • Cut the 4 pasties away from each other down the middle aisles; using a fork, press the edges all around each pastie to make sure edges adhere.
  • Repeat the assembly process with the remaining crusts and meat filling.
  • Place the pasties on a lightly pan-sprayed non-stick baking sheet (4 should fit per large baking sheet, you might need to cook in two batches) and bake at 350 degrees F until crusts are golden brown, about 30 minutes.
