A Cornish Pasty
Dear Aunt Daisy, I am a Cornish woman, have been in New Zealand for 30 years, and have made Cornish pasties hundreds of times. On a recent Saturday I had six visitors whose parents were Cornish, and I made for our tea nine Cornish pasties, which were described as delicious. This is the real Cornish way:-Make a good short crust, and roll out desired size. Chop up a quarter of an onion, a slice of swede turnip, a small potato (all sliced finely), and then add your beef steak cut into very small pieces, but not minced..Add pepper and salt, then 4% teaspoon of stock (if you have it), and \% teaspoon cold water. Place mixture on one half of rolled-out pastry, fold the other half over it, brush over with egg or a little milk, and bake in a good oven for half an hour, then slower for 144 to 2 hours.-Yours, Cornish Lass (Pukekohe).
