MEATY CORNISH PASTY

By bakingbeash May 26, 2015

A meatier version of the classic Cornish Pasty with homemade pastry.

INGREDIENTS

* For filling
* carrots - 2
* onion - 1
* potatoes - 2 medium
* rump steak - 300g
* white pepper - 1 teaspoon
* Plain white flour (Weizen Mehl 405) - 1 teaspoon
* salt - 1/2 teaspoon
* For Pastry
* Plain white flour (Weizen Mehl 405) - 450g
* Fridge cold Butter - 75g
* Fridge cold lard (optional can use butter instead) - 50g
* egg yolks - 2
* salt - 1 teaspoon
* baking powder - 2 teaspoons
* water - 120ml
* For Glaze
* 1 beaten egg

INSTRUCTIONS

For the Pastry

1. Cut the butter and lard into cubes, try not to handle it too much it needs to
be as cold as possible. In a food processor add all of the pastry ingredients
except for the water and blend till it is like breadcrumbs.

2. Slowly add the water to the processor whilst it is still mixing. It should
form a ball, you may not need all of the water to get to this stage.

3. Split the pastry into 4 balls. Wrap in cling film and then place in the
fridge for 30 minutes.

For the filling

4. Chop the onions, and peel and thinly slice the potatoes and carrots.

5. Slice the beef and coat with the flour. Mix in with the vegetables and season
well.

Making up the Pasties

6. Preheat the oven to Fan 180 degrees centigrade.

7. Dust a work surface with flour and roll the pastry out. To prevent it
sticking turn frequently and dust lightly with more flour if it is required. You
are aiming for a circle roughly 3mm thick. Use a plate or cake tin to cut out
circle shapes. Use a rolling pin to lift and move it to a baking sheet lined
with a silicon sheet or baking paper. Repeat until all four have been made.

8. Place the filling on one side of the pasty leaving a space of about 1.5 cm
away from the edge. Brush the edges with egg wash and then fold top over. Fold
the bottom of the pastry over the top press down with your fingers to make a
seal. Repeat with all four.

9. Brush the tops with a beaten egg,

10. Cook for 50 minutes in the oven till golden brown.

11. Can be eaten cold as part of a picnic lunch or warm with some extra gravy if
you like it.

I have developed this Meaty Cornish Pasty recipe over several attempts. It
combines an enriched pastry with a cooked rump steak beef filling which really
delivers on flavour.

The pastry recipe is adapted from a Hairy Biker Recipe. They make an all butter
version and say that it makes 6 pasties. I have used a little bit of lard to
make it closer to the traditional versions and think that it is safer to use the
pastry to make 4 pasties. One of the key requirements of a pasty is that it can
be held in your hand and this recipe should help you do to that.

A traditional pasty filling uses sliced raw beef, onions, potatoes and
swede/turnips and cooks them for 50 minutes. To make it a little bit special I
use rump steak. Swede is really hard to get hold of off at this time of year so
I have substituted carrots instead. They are heavily seasoned with white pepper.

History of the Pasty

Cornish Pasties were originally created for miners so that they could take them
down the mine. They would eat them by holding the pastry edge and then throw the
edge away as their hands where very dirty. Some of the wives would make a half
sweet half savoury version.

Cornish Pasties have been a traditional fast food in the UK for many years. With
Ginsters being the most well known brand. Any commercial company must make their
pasties in Cornwall to use the “Cornish Pasty” name. Recently a number of
premium fast food establishments have opened up in the UK. I recently went to a
food festival in Duesseldorf and there was a pasty stand there, so the fame of
this excellent dish is spreading.

There is now a World Championship for the Cornish Pasty. Follow the link if you
would like to be inspired by some of the more innovative flavour combinations
and to get a bit more history behind the great pasty.

Hope you enjoy eating and making this version.
