Cheese And Onion Pasties


The traditional cornish recipe uses a cheese such as double gloucester or english cheddar, but i have made some very tasty varieties using stilton, feta, bleu cheese, and even havarti.

Steps


Thaw the pastry.
If using homemade , put your dough in the refrigerator to chill.
Preheat oven to 400f.
Melt the butter in a frying pan on a low heat.
Mix in the onions and cook them until they are just beginning to soften.
Mix them with the cheese and parsley.
Roll out the pastry and cut out 4 rounds , each about 6 inches in diameter.
Put a quarter of the cheese mixture on one half of each one.
Fold over the other side and crimp the edges together.
Lay the pasties on a floured baking sheet and brush them with milk or beaten egg.
Bake them for 30 minutes and serve hot.
