Having home made cheese pastys for Tea.

We are having home made cheese pasty's for tea, I refuse to make my own pastry when the shops sell what I need. I made this for my daughters tea last week, she loved it.

What you need is For 4 people:

Shortcrust pastry
6 large potatoes, boiled then mashed
1 onion, diced then boiled
Margarine
Cheese, grated
Salt and pepper
Sweetcorn if liked.
Eggs to baste

Take your pastry out of the fridge 30 minutes before you intend to roll, roll out into 4 pieces depending on what size pasty you want to make. Get your trays ready marged with enough space in between for room to grow.

Add the boiled potatoes to a Bowl, add a spoonful of margarine then mash then add cooked onions, salt and pepper then stir in.

BOILED POTATOES

Add cheese, I used Red Leicester, Mozzarella and Mature Cheddar grated then stirred into the potato mix.

Hubby doesn't like sweetcorn so they got added later for Me, Nichola and Demi.

Once your pasty is rolled add the ingredients to the centre giving enough room to fold and seal. Use beaten egg to wash around the edges then fold and seal, the wash the pastry in beaten egg,

Place on tray and cook for 30 minutes gas mark 6. Keep checking until they are gold brown.

Enjoy with a spoonful of coleslaw. YUM

Thank you @son-of-satire
