Butte Pasty Dough image

I got this recipe from my aunt. I'm not sure how many pasties it makes, it depends on the size. We just keep making batches of dough until all of our filling is used up. Diced potatoes, cubed beef (or ground beef), onions, sometimes carrots, garlic, salt and pepper are what we use in our filling.
