Vegetarian Tenderstem® broccoli & Cornish Blue Cheese Pasty
Method
-
Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F/gas mark 7
-
Use a dinner plate as a guide to cut circles out of the pastry
-
Lay half of the circle of pastry on a rolling pin, leaving you half of the pastry to load up with filling
-
Add a third of the Tenderstem® broccoli, potatoes and onions, then top with a third of the Cornish Blue cheese
-
Season generously with salt and pepper
-
Wet the edge of the pastry and fold remaining half over the filling. Use your palm to gently press the pastry down – make sure there’s no air trapped inside the pasty before sticking the edges of the pastry together firmly
-
Create the traditional pasty edging by twisting and overlaying the pastry, then pop onto a baking sheet
-
Cover the entire pastry with the beaten egg mixture using a pastry brush to guarantee a golden brown bake
-
Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make two more pasties
-
Bake at 220°C for 10 minutes before reducing the heat to 180°C for 35 minutes
