This column has published
recipes from a great many
countries but never, I believe,
one from Cornwall. Now, thanks
to The Christian Science Moni-
tor, I'n1 able to pass along to
you the secret of making the
famous "Cornish pasties".
"These pasties should be fair-
ly large and fat to be at their
best," states the lady from whom
the recipe came. "Making them
thinner detracts from their
taste."
And, by the way—something I
didn't know before — the first
syllable of pasties rhymes with
"fast" not "waste" as I had
always thought.
CORNISH PASTIES
ill pound round steak, cut into
cubes
pound pork, cut into cubes
1 cup diced raw potatoes (dice °'
small)
11 cups sliced raw leeks (or
onions)
Salt and pepper
3 cups flour
1 cup shortening
1 teaspoon salt
34 cup ice water (or less)
Make pastry of the last 4 in-
gredients, using as little water as
possible. Force dough together
with palms of hands, and knead
on slightly floured board until
smooth a n d slightly elastic.
Divide into 3 parts, and roll each,
part into a 7 -inch circle: On lower
half of each circle place a layer
of potatoes, onions, and meat
(all beef may be used instead
of combined beef and pork, if
desired); season each layer with
salt and pepper to taste. Fold
upper half of dough over filling
and seal edges with fork. Turn
over each pasty so that rolled
part is straight down the center
on top, and flatten just a trifle.
Then put a few slits on each side
to allow steam to escape (my
mother-in-law used to say that
a well -made pasty had a straight
Beam down the middle) ! Place
pasties on baking sheet, and
bake in preheated oven at 325°F.
about 2 hours, or until meat is
tender and pastry brown. Serve
either hot or cold (we eat first
meal hot and left -over& cold),
