Now, let’s talk ingredients. You’ll need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
- 3 to 4 tablespoons ice water
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup chopped potatoes
- 1 cup chopped onions
- 1 cup chopped carrots
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Now, let’s whip it all together, shall we? Here’s how you can make these delicious Cornish Pasties:
- In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough ice water until the mixture comes together into a ball. Wrap it in plastic wrap and chill for about 4 hours in the fridge.
- After chilling, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into circles about 6 inches wide.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, chopped potatoes, onions, carrots, Worcestershire sauce, and season with salt and black pepper. Ensure everything is well mixed.
- Spoon the meat mixture onto one half of each dough circle. Fold over the other half and seal the edges tightly with a fork.
- Place the pasties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes before digging in. Serve these babies warm, and watch everyone go back for seconds!
There you have it, a fantastic dish that warms the heart and satisfies the soul. Enjoy every single bite of these homemade Cornish pasties!
