I realized I had two packages of Crescent rolls, and I had leftover veggies, meatballs from last night, and I have package of Courico.

GREAT GRANDMA JOHNS' PASTIES



Great Grandma Johns' Pasties image

This recipe originated in Cornwall England, and was adapted by my Great Grandmother Johns. It was originally made for the coal miners and wrapped in butcher paper. The hard pastry shell would keep the juicy contents fresh until the miners were ready to eat. My Grandma would serve with relishes and Coca Cola. If you want to make these more quickly, you can use refrigerated pie crusts instead of the pastry recipe.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup shortening
¼ cup cold water
¾ pound boneless beef sirloin, cubed
1 medium onion, sliced
2 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon dried parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup water, or as needed

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cut in butter with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles bread crumbs. Stir in cold water with a fork until the mixture is able to come together in a ball. Knead a couple of times then divide pastry into two pieces. Pastry may be refrigerated for later use at this time.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half of the pastry into a 10-inch circle.
  • Place half of the potato slices in a line down the center of each circle, leaving at least 1 inch at each end uncovered. Arrange onion slices over the potatoes, and season with salt, pepper and some of the dried parsley. Place half of the beef cubes over each onion layer, then season again with salt, pepper and dried parsley. Fold the edges over the pastry over the filling, and tuck in the ends.
  • Transfer the two pastries to a greased baking sheet, and cut a few slits in the top of each one for ventilation.
  • Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from the oven, and reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spoon 1 teaspoon of water into each slit on the tops of the pasties. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve whole, or cut into halves.

Tips:

  • Use store-bought crescent dough to save time: This is a great shortcut that will still give you delicious and flaky pasties.
  • Use a variety of fillings: Get creative with your fillings and use whatever you have on hand. Some popular options include ground beef, chicken, vegetables, and cheese.
  • Don't overfill the pasties: Too much filling will make them difficult to seal and they will burst open during baking.
  • Seal the pasties well: Use a fork to crimp the edges of the dough together to ensure that they are sealed well. This will prevent the filling from leaking out.
  • Bake the pasties until they are golden brown: This will take about 20-25 minutes. Keep an eye on them so that they don't overcook.
  • Serve the pasties warm with your favorite dipping sauce: They are also great for packing in lunches or taking on picnics.

Conclusion:

Pasties are a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of fillings. They are perfect for a quick and easy meal or snack, and they can also be served as an appetizer or main course. With so many different ways to make them, you are sure to find a recipe that you love.
