Description

These golden, flaky pasties are filled with seasoned beef, tender potatoes, and hearty root vegetables. Perfectly portable and deeply comforting, they make a satisfying meal anytime.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cold butter (2 sticks)
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced small
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 small rutabaga, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter until crumbly. Slowly add water until a dough forms. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  3. Mix ground beef, diced potatoes, onion, rutabaga, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
  4. Divide the dough into 6 pieces and roll each into a circle. Spoon filling into the center of each, fold over, seal, and crimp the edges.
  5. Place pasties on the baking sheet and brush with beaten egg.
  6. Bake for 45–50 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Freeze unbaked pasties for a quick future meal—just add extra baking time.
  • Use a fork to crimp the edges tightly and prevent leaking.
  • Brushing with egg wash gives a beautiful golden finish.
  • Try adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs like thyme for extra flavor.
