Ingredients
- 2 rolls puff pastry sheet 2 x 320g
- 300 g potatoes mashed
- 200 g cheddar cheese
- 50 g butter
- 1 onion chopped
- 1/2 salt
- 1/2 black pepper
- 100 ml milk
- 1 egg for egg wash
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6.
- Put the diced potatoes into a saucepan with water, bring to a boil and cook until they soften, usually taking about 10 minutes.
- As the potatoes are boiling, melt the butter on low heat completely then add the onions with the salt and cook on low heat for 5 minutes until caramelised
- Drain the potatoes then mash before adding into the onions, along with the rest of the ingredients
- Mix everything together and then set aside to cool for at least 30 minutes
- Take the puff pastry sheet and unroll it. Proceed to cut it into 4 rectangles.
- On one half of each rectangle, spoon the cheese and potato mixture, making sure to leave some space around the edges.
- Brush the edges with some beaten egg, then fold the other half of the pastry over the filling, ensuring that the edges are sealed by pressing them together with a fork.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the pasties on it.
- Brush the pasties with the remaining beaten egg.
- Put the pasties into the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until they become golden brown and crispy.
- Once they're ready, take the pasties out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- Nutritional facts:
- The provision of nutritional information is done so merely as a courtesy and should not be taken as a guarantee.
- If you want a cheesier pasty, you can add more grated cheese.
- You can also experiment with the filling by adding other ingredients such as diced ham, mushrooms, or peas.
- These pasties can be served either hot or cold, making them an excellent option for picnics or lunchboxes.
- If you have leftover pasties, you can reheat them in the oven at 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4 for 10-15 minutes.
- To prevent the pastry from becoming soggy, make sure to cool the onion and potato mixture before adding it to the pastry.
- You can also freeze the pasties before baking them. Just place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, freeze them until they become solid, then transfer them to a zip-lock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 2 months. When you're ready to bake, put the frozen pasties on a baking tray and bake them for an additional 5-10 minutes
