Cornish Pasties

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

In the name of Allah the most gracious the most merciful.

Since the baking experiences at Bristol Love Food Festival, Saffiyah has been asking to make cornish pasties again, although this time with ingredients she chose, I made a couple with added ingredients so I will list the ingredients as a total noting which Saffiyah used.

Ingredients

 225g plain flour

 100g margarine

 jug of cold water

 1 small potato, peeled and grated

 1 small onion, finely chopped

 1 small carrot, peeled and grated

 a handful of sweetcorn

 10 green beans

 100g minced lamb/beef

Saffiyah made hers minus the onion and meat and added grated cheese to bind it together, the pasties I made did not include cheese. I think we could have done with a pinch of salt and a bit of spice (black pepper/chilli).

We made them as per the method noted on the "What we've been up to" post then baked them for 10 minutes at Gas Mark 7 and 20 minutes at Gas Mark 4.
