the pasty is the perfect snack.. Or to be honest it also makes a great brunch/lunch/dinner/supper..

These were made after being inspired by my blogger pal over at..

Yet I wanted more veggies in them.. Carrots, onions, parsnips, swede and potatoes.. All passed through the processor.. The skirt steak ( best meat for these)..chopped up.. And all heavily seasoned with white pepper, nutmeg, salt, fresh rosemary, thyme and Greek basil..

The pastry for the pasty ( I like that!).. Pastry for the pasty.. Hmm

Is simply beef dripping flour and salt.. Blitzed up and moulded into a dough then rested a while..

Rolled out into a circle, the filling popped in.. Pinched up rather than folded.. I prefer them that way.. It’s also why I am not giving the a name of Cornish, Dorset, Devon or any other place!

Egg washed .. Into a hot oven for an hour..  
Cooled and wrapped they make the most perfect car snack!

Just mind the crumbs…ahem..
