Are you looking for a delicious and traditional British treat? If so, you’ve come to the right place! Mary Berry’s Cornish Pasty Recipe is a classic dish that is sure to please.
In a food processor, combine the flour and butter until it forms a crumbly texture.
Add in the egg yolks, baking powder, water, and salt to the mixture and pulse until it forms a dough.
Remove the dough from the food processor and knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes.
Divide the dough into 16 equal portions and let them rest for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a pan, cook the skirt steak until browned and set aside.
In the same pan, sauté the potatoes, rutabaga/swede, onions, salt, and pepper until they are cooked through.
Roll out each portion of the dough into a circle, about 10 inches in diameter.
Place a spoonful of the filling onto one side of the dough circle, leaving a border around the edge.
Brush the edges with beaten egg then fold the other half of the dough over to cover the filling.
Crimp the edges of the dough together to seal in the filling.
Place the pasties on the prepared baking sheet and brush with beaten egg.
Cut a small slit into each pasty to allow steam to escape while cooking.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Mary Berry Cornish pasties!
