Cornish Pasty

My Dad used to be head baker at Ivor Dewney's a devon store famous for its traditional pasty's or Oggy's as we would call them, this as as near as I could get to dads, as his recipe was always kept in the safe so he said. Little did we know that the safe was in fact inside his head, a few things I do know is that they never have caroot in or gravy and plenty of seasoning no herbs just salt and pepper #keeprecipesalive

Shop your swede onion and steak to the same size season with plenty of salt and black pepper, not sure of the seasoning then fry a little off and have a taste
- 6
Line a baking sheet or grease if you prefer, dad always use baking parchment
- 7
You can either ivide the dough into four and roll out, or we roll out into one big sheet and use a dinner plate to cut around so we have 4 circles

Now crimb, the laddies in dads bakery could do this with thier eyes closed and i am sure that there is til no machine that can do a proper crimb yet.
