Pasties
List of Ingredients
These are a baked pastry filled with ground beef, potatoes, and onions. Great for freezing.
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups of shortening (Crisco or Lard)
1 cup of water (approximately)
3 or 4 medium potatoes, peeled & sliced
1 lb ground beef
1 or 2 onions, peeled & sliced
Directions:
Sift the flour and salt together. Cut in the shortening with a pastry blender until the pieces are the size of small peas. Gradually sprinkle water over mixture, mixing lightly with a fork after each addition; add only enough water to hold pastry together. Divide dough evenly into four pieces; on a floured surface, roll out each piece into a circle, and fill one half with sliced potatoes, ground beef, and onions. Fold over and crimp edges; put a small hole in top for vent. Bake on a lightly greased cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Yield: four pasties.
This recipe can also be made into a 13 x 9 inch pan. Just divide the dough in half, and roll out a top & bottom crust.
If you don't want to make the crust, just
use store bought pie crust. It won't be as good but is a time saver.Recipe
